    Got to watch his little guy feed for a half hour, much of the time within 10 yards. He was devouring whatever that plant was.

    Hey, I actually saw one! :lol:

    Nah, just a bit more selective. :lol:

    Seriously, I don’t even know if he would have been a legal buck here.

    Something had spooked him. He was running west along a grass edge 100 yards north. He cut into the woods and was running south right to me.

    He was going to run behind me at 10 yards. I drew and tried to stop him but he stopped behind my tree and I had no vital shot.

    He started walking so I turned around. I had a 35 yard shot and took it. Problem is I totally forgot about the yardage difference and shot with my sight set at 20.

    Shot right under him.

    What a brain fart.

    I prefer a clean miss over a poor shot. YMMV.
