I'm guilty after my unit 21 mule deer hunt. On sunday afternoon I glassed up three bucks at about 1615 hours. I watched them for about 30 minutes. The bucks were slowly feeding away as I ranged them at 679 yards. I had my new sendero 7mm mag and had been shooting at 600 to 720 yards. I set up and took the shot, but the wind was the enemy. The shot hit low in the hind quarter and the buck turned heading my way limping. In a matter of maybe two minutes I was losing light and lost site of the buck behind another hill. My itchy trigger finger failed. Monday morning my only goal was to have someone in our group tag this deer. At 0600 hours we were at the same location I shot from waiting for first light. At first light I started glassing and I was so lucky. I found the buck bedded cross canyon at 313 yards. I set up and took the shot, my shot was high and broke his back. Another buck stood up and he was put down by my friends son. Not my poudest moment, but I did recover the buck. Unknowingly to me my oldest son shot this video. I'm sure some won't like it and I don't like it much, but sometimes it happens.http://m.youtube.com/results?q=unit%2021%20deer&sm=1

It is a hunting post , bad shot? Yes. Is he dead yes . Did I admit to a bad decision, that turned out with a harvested deer, yes. I see other people posting naked pics, drug pics, ignorant pics, beheading pics, robbery pics, and it goes on "on the net" I think that me "talking about it on the net" should only get me "life", instead of the "death penalty". Happy hunting!

I just took deer to have it ground . I delivered the meat on a saturday and picked it up on sunday morning. 120 #s , and the cost was $150. I had the same guy grind some elk meat last year. So I am interested in knowing how much a guy should pay for a grinder. I have an old hand grinder, but im tired.

I know all about boot leather. My oldest son ,17 killed one at 50 yards. Another in our group killed and it was a 1 1/2 mile pack out. Great job ! Concrats to you both.

Question on Match Grade and Ballistic Tip (Accuracy)
5guyshunting replied to Stallone A.'s topic in Long Range Shooting
I have no problem with people who disagree with me. I am just going upon my own observations and experience.Here are a couple great threads on the subject of hunting with match bullets. Beware, gory photos in these threads.http://snipershide.scout.com/forums/5538-hunt-fish/13277896-new-post-your-match-bullet-kill-thread?s=541http://forum.snipershide.info/showthread.php?t=106997 I am so offended and scarred for life after those gory photos. Just joking , good link. Thanks. -
Sounds like a trade to me, no compensation. Dont ask dont tell.

The best post! At least the OP had the stones to admit he screwed up a shot. I think almost anybody who has actually hunted and hunted for several years has made bad shots or shots that were rushed, missed or even had a wounded loss. Most will never admit it. I applaud anybody that does. I did some of the most piss poor shooting this year at my elk. In the end, I hit him a little off my point of aim but still dropped him where he stood. The wind was worse that I had judged in not only speed but how it was being funneled in different areas by the lay of the land. I didn't have the time to set up calmly and really analyze the wind. The bulls caught our scent and came boiling out of the timber headed for the horizon. With the bull of my dreams with in my comfortable range, I laid down, ranged him, dialed, gave my best guess on the wind on the fly, held off using the mil marks and let her rip. I missed clean. My guide would call the range and hisbest guess on the wind. This went on for a few shots until my guide saw where I hit. He stopped at 598, I readjusted for the windbased on my guides response and dropped him with the next shot. Thanks , my first shot hit so I was committed, and when that happens that is where my tag goes . If I didnt find him and kill him my hunt would have been over. I hunted I found , I shot , and I hunted some more, I shot again and kilt him. Not pretty , but done. I have never lost an animal that I have shot , except some yotes. Was it a questionable shooting opportunity? At my first assessment of the situation, I didn't think so. In hind sight, I believe so. Why did I continue to shoot? I guess because a shot was taken and I hate giving up on anything. The bull I wanted was in front of me, I was already set up and it's human frickin nature to keep shooting until you hit your target. Right or wrong, it was the heat of the moment and it all happened so fast. I wasn't in the 'let's reason this out' mode where common sense would have said it was time to let it go and was full throttle shoot mode focused on the task at hand. Like az_shooter said "Don't let anybody tell you how to eat your pie, it's yours, dig in".
