My first Buck!!!

Post by Utahbowhunter » Wed Oct 03, 2007 3:53 pm

Finally i got my first deer. We left friday to where we were going hunting! We got up the next morning and drove to the place where we were gonna go hunting. When we got there we went and stood by a tree next to a meadow. We were there only 7 minutes then This buck walked out of the oak brush right in front of us... stood there for a sec then trotted across the field. he stopped about 15 yards away from us and looked at us. I was very slowly grabbing the cap out of my pocket and putting it in. It took me forever to put it in because i was shaking. Finally i got it and then i cocked the gun then the buck ran about 10 yards and stopped kinda quartering away right between 2 trees and then BANG!!! I looked up and saw the buck Jump up and turn and then fall! He got up and fell again. Then got up and ran about 50 yards and died. From where we were standing we couldnt see exactly where he ran so we tried to find his blood trail! we found 1 drop of blood. so we just started to look around and i followed the trail he was on where i shot him and sure enough he was dead on that trail. Well here he is... he is 17 and 1/2 inches wide and 22 inches tall. Oh yeah hes a 2 point.

This is where he fell.

Well done. That's a massive forked horn.
