[QUOTE="Eaglet, post: 128272, member: 3756"] Kirby, Great write up, great experience, just a beautiful buck! [b]My theory[/b] <font color="blue">on the buck flopping around like a fish is </font> your bullet just barely hit one side of the antler close to the head, at the base of the antler, and that big canon of yours had him acting up like that. Growing up in Nicaragua I regularly would go deer hunting with an uncle (on my mother's side) at night, using spot light on one's head and many times my uncle would make head shots at 35 to 50 yards using iron sights. Well many times it happened that the deer would move the head at the shot and would get hit close to the base of an antler and the deer would just go down like a sack of potatoes, quickly get back up and take off running not leaving any signs of a hit.
