I had three goals going into this deer season,One with my shot gun,bp,and if the right shot presented itself one with my 1911.
It was tough hunting 30 mph winds and not much was moving saw nothing for two days,I was hunting heavy cover.
Tuesday am I spoted a small buck about 60 yds out and up wind of me decieded to give it a pass,untill it kept comming it stoped about 30 and browsed abit and walked right to me.
It stoped broadside to me at 15 yds unaware I was there inspite of the wind so I sliped the 45 out of the shoulder holster and calmed my breathing and took a neck shot.I figured If I made the shot it was down and if I missed no harm no foul.I made the shot but the deer managed to make it 60 yds before going down.
I Hit where I aimed, but in retrospect I will probabally
go with a heart lung shot next time.
