sasksheds Posted November 22, 2004 Report Share Posted November 22, 2004 We went out sat to one of my fav spots for Wt.We got a small wt buck first thing on the drive around.Then we went & did a huge push.I took the 2 boys & we spread out through the hills.It didnt take long & I saw a nice buck running behind a doe towards us.They were going to go by way out of range so I ran over the next few hills but they got by.I sat there hoping that maybe they hung up in one of the bluffs.I kept watching behind me along the river bottom for any sign of them running in the distance.to my surprise I saw him walk out to the river edge & start to cross over to an island.I ran down to the bank & through the fence & layed on my belly.He was out about 450 yards.I raised the crosshairs of my 270 1ft over his back & started the artillery.As i emptied my clip & was reloading I yelled for my friend that I knew was close to start shooting.He fired 3 shots & me 6 more.The buck layed down & expired over 800 yards away in the middle of the river!I stripped my suit & pants off & wore only my suit & rubber boots out to drag him back.I had seen that the water never got to the deers belly as it was walking out there so I knew I would be alright.After a long hard drag back to shore I ran for the warm truck & stripped down to get warm.The other guys drug it the rest of the way to the truck.Eric figured that he had hit it @ least once out of his 3 shots.When we gutted it we found that it was shot through the liver & graised twice.So Eric tagged it.When we skinned it @ home we found that it had been hit @ least 5 times & graised twice.I kind of wondered why it had not run after my first shot & I emptied my clip.I guess I had him dialed in!He might go 140 typ.Nice deer for a 4 point.
