I am still sick...can't imagine what happened. Setup a treestand in a fencerow at edge of corn field. Buck come in along end rows of corn, at 60 yards I put crosshairs right on his chest and gently squeeze the trigger. BOOOOOM! Buck stands there a bit, comes towards fencerow turns and walks along fence and jumps into woods and walks off.

I get down, search area. No hair, no blood...no ANYTHING. He didn't act like he was hurt or wounded and I am sure he wasn't.

There were some tree limbs between he & I and I thought I was clear...but one must have been in the road that I didn't see.

HOW BIG OF A TWIG DOES IT TAKE TO DEFLECT A SHOT? 150gr. pellets, 350Gr. FPB?

I sit for another hour and then go home. I put up my shooting target in the yard, load the gun and hand to my son and ask him to shoot it. Thinking maybe the scope got knocked around or something. He (wise guy LOL) blows the bulls-eye out dead center at 75 yards with my gun. I reload again and I sit down and place the shot 3/4 inch high, right above his bulls-eye perfect center.

My EGO was wounded like crazy....it's the first time that I have pulled the trigger on a deer with that gun that the deer didn't get a FREE ride home in my truck. There had been 7 in a row!

I guess that's why they call it deer hunting and NOT deer killing!
