[QUOTE="Foddan, post: 1443849, member: 105964"] I hunted with my father and uncle as a young lad and would usually shoot Pop's .300wm when we were hunting together. I had drawn a doe tag that year and as we were driving back to camp for lunch we rounded a corner on a skid road to find a doe posing for me about 30' away. I grabbed Pop's gun, hopped out of the truck, loaded a round, and figured I'd shoot her in the head since it was only 30'. I squeezed the round off and the deer's head whips to the side. I can still picture the dew flying off her fur in slow motion, 30 years on... The doe then took off like the devil himself was after her, never to be seen by us again. My dad and uncle we laughing themselves to tears in the truck because they'd seen what I didn't - I'd pierced both of the doe's ears. Pop later confided in me he fell off a log and landed on his rifle the day before, we went out after lunch to check it and he couldn't hit paper at 100 yds. The following year at hunting camp my uncle read a story he wrote about me being on the run from Deaf Deer Ear Protection Society, and I haven't lived it down since. [/QUOTE]
