hey this is my first year hunting and i got this doe Dec 2nd with my shotgun in IL. I got out aroun 3 pm and was sitting next to a old combine which the deer travel past on there way to the combined corn field well after about an hour and a half i was ready to go so i called my mom and she sent some1 to come and get me so i figured i could walk back into the woods someto find anice spot to put my stand the following morning When i looked ahead there she was standing all i seen was the body no head I seen how big the body was and i steadied my sight right behind her left shoulder and boom the deer jumped up and it took of towards me i went amediatly lookin for blood right as io found i drop off blood i heard a crash and it was her fallin 20 yards from where i shot her after i got it home we weighed her and she weighed in at 178 lbs.!!!!!!!!

This wasnt how i wanted to take my first deer but hey it was stupid enought to let me walk to about 30 yards from it
