ruttinbuc Posted October 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 Re: How far? The picture as well as the reality is really deceiving! Had this buck been standing at 50 yards there is a good chance he would be in the freezer. The field is 250 (approx.) yards from end to end.

ruttinbuc Posted October 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Re: How far? Attention: WE HAVE A WINNER! I was running out of hints so this is a good thing! Homeslice, PM me your address and I'll be sure to reward your correct answer! Had it not been for having a range finder I most assuredly would have been losing arrows in that meadow. I guess this is where the photographic term "Depth of Field" comes from. So tell me Homeslice, how did you figure it out? Good with distances? Mathmatical equasion? Some numbers were missing? Just a good guess? Thanks to all who participated! For those who just watched from the sidelines ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HitRmisS Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Re: How far? well if your picture and and numbers match he was about 60 yrds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttinbuc Posted October 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Re: How far? HitRmisS, You missed again! You need to look at the angle of the stand to the deer. There will be no debate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HitRmisS Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Re: How far? ok i say 53-55 yrds from the stand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttinbuc Posted October 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Re: How far? From the stand I ranged the deer at 72 yards. 72 yards is the answer. End of story! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HitRmisS Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Re: How far? oh oops sorry i didnt realize that someone had guessed it and you had said the anwer. i wasn't trying to argue just had to much time on my hands and was bored. guess i should have read the rest of the replies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttinbuc Posted October 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Re: How far? That is ok HitRmisS. I do the same thing myself now and again. It is hard to keep with it all sometimes. I just didn't want anyone to get into a debate about real events that I experienced. You always have the doubters. I am going to try and kill that buck in the morning. Maybe I'll have a picture and a question on that too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruttinbuc Posted October 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Re: How far? I knew that, buddy! We all should have paid attention to the math in school. Everything has a mathmatical equasion, say? Bowhunting is a lot about the numbers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
