Yipee!!! I finally shot my first deer!!!!
This has been my first season ive gone out deer hunting!
ok this is how it happened:
it was a dark and lonely night,
no seriously it was the 2nd last day of the season and it was getting dark outside. i was sitting on a ridge with my trust .300 win mag, set up my bipod and aiming down the ridge waiting for the unfortunate deer to cross my sights!!! i was aiming down a small path in the woods going down into the valley with a small creek on the bottom where the deer always freshen up. i was scanning the creek when all of a sudden, kapoof shes there!!
it happened so fast and it was hard to see the doe that i didnt want to spoil my last chance at a deer this season.
i didnt wait long, she was facing me about 100 yards away, i just sighted in on her and let her have it! the other hunters told me she was bigger than most theyve ever seen!! took 4 of us to bring her up!!!!
thats my hunting experience!!! Dan!

Way to go Dan...ya weren't in a dress at the time were ya mate?
Seriously though mate...well done. Even though you didn't have a camera with you (neither did I the first time) the "pic" will remain firmly embedded in you mind's eye mate.
Cheers, Vince
