[QUOTE="FullAuto, post: 4179289, member: 5110"] Day 2 continued: So after the turkey's I'm pretty bored. I pick up my rifle and start scanning stuff. As I'm scanning to my right, a deer walks into my scope. I bring my head up off the rifle and there are 2 does standing in the middle of the trail. They slowly walk across and I let them go. It's exactly 7:30. At 7:37, they are coming back across. I decide I better take one of these, so I take a shot. I see it disappear into the woods. Am I jerking the trigger this bad? I wait until 8:15 to leave the stand, walk down and find blood. With my rangefinder, I'm 221 yards from the stand. Here I am standing at the blood, looking back at the stand. [ATTACH type="full"]436289[/ATTACH] I walk maybe 20 yards into the woods and find an old barbed wire fence. I call my buddy to help me search for the deer. When he shows up, I'm telling how pissed I am because I missed one and wounded another. He tells me he found deer #1 about 50 feet outside the field from the day before. Coyotes had gotten to it, but he had taken a pic. Deer #1: [ATTACH type="full"]436290[/ATTACH] We crawl through the fence and end up finding deer #2 maybe 50 yards from where it had been shot. Deer #2: [ATTACH type="full"]436291[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]436289[/ATTACH][ATTACH]436290[/ATTACH][ATTACH]436291[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
