[QUOTE="timmyatnop, post: 529702, member: 20350"] Iam no gona lay blame on the bullet. I got a tc single shot oh 7 years ago and loaded 175 gr smk at I think 27somthing. There I was opening day in my stand along the south platter river in central. Neb. It was getting light out and I could start to see. A doe bedded in the fragmitie just stood up.. Oh my there he was the biggest deer I have ever seen on out property.. I pulled my rifle up cocked the hammer and looked through my pride fowler scope. Oh it was gona be great I centered the cross hairs behind the sholder kind by a crease on his side Mabey kind high up on him though ok 8 inches to high. The shot looked awsome the deer bolted ran 30 yards then went down kinda rolling on his side then up he jumped I was so excited and happy I called my dad and said bbd. Just then to the south I saw a nother one looked huge. It jumped the fence and ran into the ceder trees. I got down walked to where he fell and seen lots of blood on the snow. I started following it. And found where it jumped the fence 200 yards from where I gave him the bisness . Dad showed up I told him what happened we went ate lunch called the neighbor ,asked if we could cross fence .he said ok we walked 100 yards found a pool the size of dinner plate . Went further 100 the same . Fallowed him half a mile before blood ran out . I was heart. Broken a week later a shot a smaller buck and took him to taxidermist. Oh my god he said let me show u the one your neighbor killed . Yea u guessed it it was the deer I had shot . I don't know if its bullets folt or shot placment foult . But there u have it. I should have put it on the shoulder .live and learn I guess. Hope u enjoyed my tale of the hunt when I was 19 . [/QUOTE]
