Had a deal sort like this earlier this year.Rifle season but had friend hunting with a bow,I had taken a couple with bow so I was on "meat duty".I was watching from open field in rifle stand but could observe the bowhunt going on and send text if I saw something to watch for.Well I saw a buck rambling down road we had walked down coming in,sent text"buck in road behind you!"He turned and could see him coming...problem is buck was acting like he was going to turn and head to other property and bypass bow range.I took it upon myself to bypass the whatifs and define what was going to happen....I put a 25 caliber bullet through his lungs at 150 yards! Next text "buck dead in pasture" the reply was "that deer wanted a arrow!" I text back...."well run down there and sic em and stick em".I let deer lay and we continued to hunt for another hour in case he got a shot...nothing happened but there was meat on the ground. And the other hunter is a member here.
