Buck Strikes Back
This is 100% verifiable proof. The .270Win isn't adequate for big bucks! LOL
You're not cool unless your deer explode on impact.

Thats why you carry a pistol on your hunts a .45 bullet or two in the chest would have slowed that big buck down

In AK, I used to get a kick out of the cheechakos who toted a 44 Maggie to back up their .375 H&H's when bear hunting......

RE: Buck Strikes Back
That's funny... "two well-placed shots" from his .270. Geeze... I've never had one get up after one well-placed shot from my .243... I'm guessing it's another clown in the woods who never bothered to sight in his pre-packaged Model 710 with cheap-o scope... Bet he'll be toting a .300 RUM that he can't shoot next season.

RE: Buck Strikes Back
The Ronny Stoddard Ride
Knew a guy ages agoin the Sangre De Cristo mountains of northern New Mexico who came across a big mulie once withhis antlers tangled up in a barbed-wire fence.
“AHA, says our hero! I’ll save a cartridge, and just cut his throat.” Laying his rifle down, hopping on the buck’s back, our hero reaches around the buck’s neck with knife in hand to do the deed, when all of a sudden MR. Mulie comes UNSTUCK. And both are off to the races! After a couple hundred yard ride, the buck succeeded in tossing the knife-wielding hunter into a patch of prickly-pear cacti, which implanted themselves firmly in his backside!!
Never did get the throat cutting accomplished!!Hero escaped with nothing but a few cactus spines in his posterior, but with a valuable lesson in his head! Do the killing part with your rifle, senor!!

RE: Buck Strikes Back
Just goes to show you that it takes all kinds to make up this world. I don't care if I shoot a doe, I always approach from behind and tap the eye with the muzzle. You always have to be sure. Deer don't need antlers to put a hurtin on you. Those hoofs can knock you silly ina hurry.
