[QUOTE="stewball, post: 873103, member: 5413"] He was originally about 160 yards from me & my buddy. We were hunting in a "condo" blind overlooking a winter pea field we planted earlier. He would not hold still and I thought he was going to disappear into the woods at the edge of the field. He was broadside at about 200 yards and I just did not want to shoot at that distance, but a doe relieved hereself closer to us and he came running in towards the blind. He turned broadside at about 125 yards and I took the shot. He took off, tail up high and I thought I had missed. I told my buddy we needed to check for blood and follow up the shot. We had about 10 minutes of light left and low and behold we found him about 75 yards in the woods, shot through the lungs. I was very, very lucky to have found him. I was using a Knight Long Range Hunter 50 caliber, with 110 grains of Longhorn 209 powder with a 295 grain Powerbelt bullet. I'm attaching a pic of the deer my buddy shot last Sunday evening (the same deer I missed on Saturday evening). It weighed 140 lbs dressed, he shot it with a TC Encore. We had a blast, in three weeks we'll be back for rifle season. There is a monster on this place he saw before archery, we would love to get him. I hope everyone else has as great a hunt as I had this weekend. Stew [b][Broken External Image][/b] [/QUOTE]
