I got my first deer back in 7th grade (and only one so far, I don't hunt much). I was at a relative's ranch with my dad and we were sitting in one of the blinds. After hours of seeing absolutely nothing (and out of boredom), I stopped paying attention and started singing a corrupted version of "Hush Little Baby" (I don't remember the words, I just remember my friends making up stuff to teh tune of that song, usually cruel and vulgar lol). I think my dad got bored as well, so he stops playing attention. Then he just randomly looks up and there's a buck probably 30 yards in front of the blind, it might have been closer, I don't remember the distance. I pulled up the .243 that I was using and shot it. It jumped, ran about 60 yards, then dropped. It was a huge 7-point.

A couple of years later, my dad and I went again along with a younger cousin who just wanted to watch, and he got a small 8 or 9 point. It was facing a weird angle and my dad thought it was going to run, so he went ahead and took the shot. The shot entered in the chest and went through and took out his hip or one of the back legs. It dropped immediately and didn't move. So we pull up and as we are walking up to the buck, it tries to get up and just falls back down. So we ended up having to hold it down while my dad slit it's throat (we left our .22 at the ranchhouse). That was not fun to watch at all.

Was the right thing to do though

I shot one, it ran, we tracked for a few hours, my first shot ever from a stand and I totally fucked that up!lol I did get a squirrel. about 80 yards, no shit through both eyes with a 308! I had to see it is was my shooting. I should have put more thought into the shot. From that angle I shout have gone for a neck shot...

Deer are fucking resilient as hell... I have double lunged em before and had them run 250+ yds... If they feel pressured or somtheing they'll run forever

I waited a while. The guys at the hunting club didn't want us to track them our selves. We tracked for more than 3/4 of a mile. Shit ton of blood and no dead deer. I was completely pissed...

I got busted by a beautiful 11 pointer... I was up in my treestand overlooking a few ridges and an Orchard... Had him come in CLOSE but from a fucked up angle... I was able to turn around to see him but when i tried to stand and get my body/rifle around to put him in the cross hairs he spotted me ... Blew at me ... Then i had to watch him run away up the hill :(
