I just got back from a friends farm that needed some deer shot to fill some of his ag tags. Walked 75 yards to the top of a sand dune. Sat until about 7:30PM and four came our about 250 yards away.. picked out the biggest one zipped the scope up to 9, layed on my belly and took a lungs out… I usually drop them in there tracks with 170 grain 270. Anyway she turned right at me ran across two cranberry beds,(you could see she was hurt and hit about 50 yards away) up on the road put the breaks on..looked backwards one last on this side of the dike road…. took one step and fell dead in the ditch. Drove the truck to within 75 feet of her. Hooked the rope to the hitch and her neck and pulled her out of the twelve foot ditch. Only thing she didn’t do for me is gut herself.
Nice young doe… about 125-130 dressed and really long… yum yum yum.
