Congrats on the successful hunt, but I just have to say something here. I counted 4 misses and 2 less than well placed shots in your story with only one animal recovered. I have to say, this is a less than stellar performance. Out of 6 shots fired, you have 1 dead and 1 wounded.

I don't mean to throw stones here, but I think you guys need to spend some more time at the range and/or take more high percentage shots. I hit a buck at 84 yards last year with my gun and open sites. It got away and I felt bad about that. So I scoped the gun and have been to the range 4 times so far. As you can see from my post this weekend, I have it dialed in and have full confidence the next deer is going down and staying down. You owe it to the animals to do the same.
