A little off subject but I shot a cow one year with the muzzle loader. She went down like a rock and though I should have reloaded right away, for some reason I did not. There was a small Bull with her and while I tried to field dress the cow he kept stomping and shaking his head at me from about 25 yards away. He then started comming toward me slowly. I picked up a stick and threw it at him but he held his ground. I then found a pretty good size rock and through that at him and hit him in the head. He backed off about 50 yards but kept watching. At this point I took a moment and reloaded the gun. He was still there when I went for help to retrieve the cow. This was a rather nerve wrecking ordeal and I have always reloaded instantly since then even if I was pretty sure the animal was down for good. I don't know if another shot in his direction would have spooked him or not. I don't know if he wanted to fight or just finish lovin.
