This ever happen to anyone?

My nephew got his first archery buck yesterday.  He is 13. They took it back to camp to skin and quarter.  After everything was done, my brother was sitting there enjoying a cold beverage  and another buck walks into camp. My nephew convinces him to shoot it.

Probably smelt the other buck and was looking for a buddy to hang with.

The answer is no. This has never happened to anyone ever. Crazy.

Never to me, always some other guy…..

I left alot of the crazy details out. Broadside 20 yards. They left it until the next morning (unsure of the hit location, watched it bed) and a lion claimed it.

A few years back my dad and I had a December WT hunt. Opening morning my Dad shot a mid 90’s buck that was chasing a doe and had a young three point buck following behind. After he shot it ran down a steep hillside to die. My dad being to old to hike down to it, I went down and dragged it back up to him so we could get pictures. The Doe and smaller buck followed me the entire time at maybe 25 yards and even stayed and watched us take photos and gut it. My dad kept telling me to shoot the smaller buck and be done with the hunt. I resisted and didn’t take the shot but otherwise it would have been similar.

I'd rather be lucky then good any day. Sucks a lion got it.

Only ate the butthole and part of one quarter. My brother went back to camp to grab a couple of waters, leaving my nephew there.  My nephew saw the lion at 40 yards.
