Thank you..... I'm not all about making up some crap story. I tell it how it is. Yes I hunt over there. Matter of fact I was just over there hunting the day before and saw some real nice rubs. And to be honest, I don't know where I hit him. The only hole there was in him was in the neck where I shot him to put him down. The hole in the chest is where I stuck him with my knife because he was still breathing. I didn't skin him and check him over because I took him to get cut up, and caped... I usually cut up my own deer, but I didn't want to cape it wrong. I have never got a deer worth mounting. As far as me hitting the range.... Well I was shooting woodchucks this summer with this rifle at 100 yards with no problem. So I don't know what happened, don't know if the scope got knocked out or what. 130/140 yards at a deer with my gun is a chip shot. I will be shooting it this summer to find out what happened. The buck is not all shot up. 1 hole in the neck and 1 in the chest from my knife.... Call it what you want some of you... I am proud of him, and you wont change that. There was nothing illegal about what I did... What am I going to do, turn my self in for shooting next to my house?? Its not illegal to shoot near your own home when you live out in the country. And my neighbor doesn't care either. I have spent countless amounts of hours in the woods and in my stands. I have limited hunting area, and limited as to how much I can do also with my back. I am disabled. So I guess if you don't like how I got him thats your opinion, but leave it that please. You do have to come on threads and bash people. you want more information, ask, but don't be and ass about it. Telling me my story sucks is uncalled for.... You dont like it, then let your mouse do the clicking and go on to a thread you might like. To everyone else, thank you very much, I cant wait to get him back. He will be my first mount, who knows, it might be my only one.......
