[QUOTE="Kenster-Boy, post: 83345, member: 2330"] Nope not yet but when the next pay check gets here you better believe that one will be on it's way. D.S. it's one of those things that you really had to have been there. I am sure that you would have been fooled by that wind as well. There was NO evidence of any kind of wind where I was at. But up on the hill it was a different story. The wind was moving fairly good. Now about the 10 times part. All of those shots were in the same spot I am sure. I didn't have a spotter and therefore was hoping to see a bullet impact and due to the ammount of rock that was up on that hill it just wasn't going happen. So have you ever missed a deer once? at extended range. So if what your telling me is ture you should be so discouraged and were so disrespectful to the animal that you should never try again? All those shots were in the same place so you could sort of say I missed it once. GoodGrouper said that he misjudged the wind on his doe antelope and shot just in front of her chest. That could have just as easily have been a gut shot. However I didn't hear you rake him over the coals about that. WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES. My first problem was the elevation angles. Once I got them figured out the last shot I got I got burnt by the wind. I don't see the problem with shooting the distances I was. I HAVE PROVEN MY SHOOTING ON PAPER AT THOSE RANGES! [/QUOTE]
