Well, deer season is over until next year. HUnting is therapy for me more than anything else. It's provides a means for me to get away from all the crap that goes on in the world.

I can finally look back at a successful season wear it all came together.

Well, here's the story. I seen the eight point run up the hill towards anoother hunter on his proerty. knowing the hunter was up there I thought this deer was dead. THe hunter missed him at 100 yards w a 30-06, then hit him high, then missed him three times, then reloaded and fired a shot at the deer when it was running towards me. the bullet went over my head. I watched the whole thing go down through my binoculars. I knew the deer was hit when it was running towards me so I had to take a running shot, something I do not like to do. My scope was cranked up to 14x when the deer was closing the distance and magnifier ring wouldn't turn down so I couldn't find the deer in my scope. Finally I filled my scope w the deer and fired at him at 75 yards, hitting him in the neck. If the deer was not wounded already then this shot would have not been a shot I would have taken. Just because I wasn't sure I could make a quick kill. But Knowing he was already hit I had to chance it.

Looking back it was a great shot even though I didn't mean to neck shoot him!!!

It was either the deer or the hunter firing in my direction!!!!

I call it the "almost got killed buck"!!!
