RE: What was your first deer???
Shot a 6pt years ago with a Mossberg 20ga. slug. He was coming down a hill towards me and turned broadside at about 40 yds. I shot and he rolled down the hill. I was shaking like a leaf. Waited about 10 minutes and started to get up and go after him. The little bugger jumped straight up and looked at me. I unloaded one more round into him and he ran about 20 yds and dropped. When I got to him I had found out that I had grazed him across the spine with the first shot and temporarily paralyzed him. Craziest thing I thought.I thought he wasdead from the first shot and just shocked the crap out of me when he jumped up and looked at me. Never forget that first deer!
