My First Shotgun Buck

My son and I had gone out early this morning and the fog was terrible couldn't see more than 50 yards for 3 hours. That didn't stop the deer from moveing though. I passed on more deer today than I have all season. I took my shotgun to the same stand I got my big ten earlier this year. Hadn't ever shot a deer with it and my son was useing my Savage .270 on the pipeline. He had crossed the pipeline where my son was hunting on the other end of the forty, he texted me that there was a heavy horned buck comeing my way. Ended up being a 7 with some stickers broke off. Still proud of him though. Didn't figure he was gonna make anything more since he was atleast 3 and maybe 4 years old. I shot him with my slug gun 870 Rifled slug barrel, Hornady SST slugs. That slug sure did a number on him. Went about 75yrds and died in a wheat field. First deer I have taken with my shotgun, needed a little more challege. Going after a doe with my Springfield XD Tactical .45 ACP now, and the bow of course. I am now tagged out on bucks, doe and yote hunting now til cat season opens Dec. 1st. Good luck to those who haven't scored on a deer.[ATTACH=CONFIG]11206[/ATTACH]
