Yes..1/2 my deer have been killed mid day..

One quick ole story..Little background knowledge before I get laughed at. In the Military I was the best shot..they knew from my shooting I must have been a hunter..

While on leave I scouted out a place quickly in Maryland. A new place I'd never set foot on. My dad's old Steven's 30-30 was shot in but the ammo was at least 30 years old.He hardly ever hunted. I'm in my stand..a very big buck ..which I thought was a cow at first is walking right under my stand...I fired...He kept walking..3 more shots straight down on his back ..The deer simply walked off..WHAT THE HECK !!! I was now out of rounds.. I bought a new box. made sure the rifle fired straight..it did..went back the same day..and at 1:30 PM a younger buck saw me...bolted through some thick stuff..I fired one shot and rolled him while he was in full sprint..He died on the spot.
