I shot this buck monday morning of gun season after spending the weekend at the waterpark for my daughters birthday. I heard about the low numbers taken over the weekend, but headed out first thing in the morning. I had an Ithica model 37 deerslayer than a friend had gave me. The gun shot like a dream at the range and I wanted to break it in. So about two in the afternoon this guy walks across the creek near one of my other stands, and hes not coming my way. So i pick the best opening I can find and squeeze the best I can while my heart doing 280!! When I shoot he reacts more like he was spooked instead of hit.... So I wait about a half an hour and go look. All I find is a tuft of hair... I think OMG I MISSED!!!! I turn to look where he went and there is one beautiful pool of blood. Not more than thirty feet away hes piled up in a heap. While dressing him his heart falls out. Both atria missing. Just curious how old you think he is and what he might score. Eleven points fifteen and a half spread. Main beams almost touch. Maybe this was Gods way of making up for the waterpark..?? Thanks for reading. Sorry cell phones dont work well when its foggy...
