Next buck is bedded on the other end of the canyon. We get there, Kurt goes down wind and I go to the pinch point. Kurt bumps the deer before I was in place......f*cker!
It's doe after doe after doe then it stops.
I send Zoe to flank for me at the pinch point, her scent will also blow that buck, as planed he can only go straight up the cliff......I send one as he's jumping like a damn Mt Goat up the hill I hit him, he falls but he's not down and gets back up with some weeds in his rack, he stops, not looking good. I send one more qt. away heart shot drt...... Kurt fires just after my shot and hits the rocks way high from the buck.....poor Kurt, 3 misses in a 1.5 hunt on two different bucks.
You always remember the one's that should of been epic.
That's just one hunt of many they flush or flank and can get closer than I can in the thick brush while I can get a shot.
But they all start with glassing
