[QUOTE="lerch, post: 89891, member: 3115"] [b]Re: Bill and Lerch\'s Buffalo Adventure[/b] Just to keep people updated me and Bj went out this morning and braved the 20mph 9 degree wind chill and tried to get me a trophy buck. After spotting something odd in the grass at 150yds I thought I might have seen a buck. About 10min later a doe trotted across the grass field about 500yds out from us. I could tell by the way she was running that a buck was hot on her butt so I scanned behind her only to see the largest buck I have ever seen hot on her trail. I quickly got into position with the 270AM and BJ fed me a range of 515. I dialed him in and prayed for the buck to stop. He neared our property line and slowed down a little bit just before the fence. I realized I still had the gun on safety and when I set the gun to fire he was jumping the fence. Probably good I didnt shoot anyway The buck was a 10 or 12 pointer well over 20" wide with over 12" G-2's. The whole spectacle was enough to make me cry but we still a couple of days left of season so maybe he will come back out. Still ****es me off though [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] On our way out we saw a group of Coyotes at 200yds and I let the 270AM bark at one. The dog simply melted to the shot and the exit wound looks like you threw a football through him. As fun as that was I would have much rather done the same to a buck Well at least now the 270AM has some blood on it. take it easy steve [/QUOTE]
