Way to go there, wesmac68. Venison in the freezer!
As I was reading through the replys, I kinda figgered he wasn't aiming there, either. But it sure reminded me of another bad hit that turned out OK.
A friend had patterened deer that were moving from feed to bed every moring across a road into a swampy area. The only tree he could find to put his hang on stand was a smallish poplar tree in the ditch beside the road. He hung it there pre-dawn and waited for the deer to come.
As he waitied, the tree began to slooooowly bend toward the road. He tried shifting his weight the other way, but it kept sloooowly bending . By the time the deer came across the road, he was nearly out OVER the road, and hanging at a really wierd angle. But there were the deer, so he drew and shot, hitting the lead doe . . .













.... right in the eye.
She went down, he managed to get down, and that's the end of that story.
