took a shot at a decent 8 pointer tonight. it was a little out of my comfort range but I got lost in the moment and took the shot. I couldn't tell if I hit him, he bolted as soon as i shot then stopped. He just stood around a little but kept licking his side. I got out of their at dark and will go back first thing in the morning, it is about 500 yards from the house so I will go back at first light.
