Rookie mistake… saw a buck cruising the far field at 250 yards. He came down and went into the wood line. Never did get a good look, just knew he had horns. 5 minutes later I saw the back of a deer crossing the lower field. After he crossed into the thick stuff below me, he turned toward me does second and all I saw in my scope was horns. As he turned and took a couple of steps, I fired. What I failed to realize I still had my scope turned up and at 50 yards in the thicket, he looked like a shooter. Stupid mistake, but he'll be tender eating. 5 point. Smallest buck I've killed in several years. Thank you Lord for a clean and quick kill.

Hi! I just thought maybe you would like to know there's a girl named Tamara Jane from Missouri posting your deer photos on Facebook claiming they are hers. I've attatcged the screenshots to my page for you to see!

Congratulations
 
As I was fixing to go back hunting this afternoon I got a call asking if this kid could come sit with me. It's my cousin's kin folk on the other side of the family. He's never killed a buck so no way I was making him watch deer that I pass. About 3:45 this buck walked out and got in the tall grass where I couldn't see him. Finally after 10 mins or so he moved and towards us even more. He made a great shot on it and it fell right behind us. After we got to it we found someone had shot it in the jaw recently. So it was a win win for everybody. He got his first buck and he got put of of his misery.

That's awesome!! Congrats!!
 
This year my wife said she wanted to start deer hunting, which I was excited for her wanting to start deer hunting. She begun her first deer season with muzzleloader season, she had passed several opportunities to kill some does. But she was willing and wanting to hold out for a buck. Well, this morning was her morning! At 7:14 am we had a great buck coming in, not chasing or anything. She knew it was time! Got him to stop at 33 yards and she took her shot! She sent the 295 grain power belt to the shoulder, not where she wanting to put it but the adrenaline was high! He went about 20 yards and fell over. He was not dead yet, sent another 295 grain to the neck and finished it. She was beyond excited and happy to hold out on the does to have this buck as her first deer! It is safe to say, she definitely has the bug now and we will get to have many more memories to make together!
