bagged my first deer
After 3 years of hunting I got a nice 150 lb. doe last night.
Shot was 30 min before dark, 110 yds from the stand. Hit was a little lower than I'd like (only caught 1 lung), but it did the job.
Shooting was a TC Impact/250 gr. SST/100 gr. Pyrodex pellets. Not much blood to track with, but the ground was soft enough to spot prints. She made it to cover and finally dropped about 80 yds from the hit. Blood trail was only 30-40 feet long.
I'm really glad I didn't go looking right away. Probably would have pushed her half the night.
