[QUOTE="SMK1000plus, post: 1582658, member: 93846"] I had s similar experience with deer many years ago. We were dog hunting deer in our very large hunting party. There were around forty trucks (around sixty shooters) in our group. One hunter had seen three deer go into a cypress pond about 400 yards out, in an otherwise wide open pasture. He announce it over the CB radio, asking me which way I thought they went. He was sitting on the fence-line bordering one side of the pasture and had not seen them leave. I told him that I thought that the deer had squatted in the cypress pond, and that I would walk out into the pasture, on the backside of the pond from him, and flush them out. By the time I had reached the backside of the cypress pond, our entire hunting party had lined the fence-line! The three deer had indeed squatted in the pond and flushed on the fence side of the pond as I entered the back. They ran nearly parallel to the fence-line angling slighty towards it. It sounded like a war zone as the guys where shooting at the three deer running full speed, broadside. I took cover behind a large tree and just listened. Most of the guys shot their rifle dry. One guy even shot his shotgun dry, after drying out his rifle! In the end, all three deer went down with one rifle slug in each. They dropped between 350 yards and 300 yard from the fence-line. Two of the deer had been killed with a 223 and the other with a 270 Win. Everybody there saw the deer hit with the 270 go down and knew exactly who killed it. The other two hit with the 223, well there was only one guy in our group that shot a 223... We all knew he could shoot, much better than the average bear! [/QUOTE]
