RE: First Season
My first season I shot a 160 lb. doe and a seven point buck at the same time. I shot at the doe and thaught I missed her because she ran, so I chambered another round and shot the second deer as it jumped a fence.
The second one dropped in it's tracks and when I got there it was a buck. The doe was laying about twenty yards from it. I've learned a lot since then. I don't think that will happen again.[:-]

RE: First Season
i had quite a few chances but no shots.
if i had known how to judge distance a little better I could have shot two
I was using a 20 ga with buck shot...but just seeing that many deer got me hooked for life.
