Doe #4 down with Vortex

Post by Hester0305 »

I went hunting this afternoon and sit over my food plot that was planted with Brassicas and Clover. The deer have been wearing it out lately, I had 3 does come into the food plot around 6:20 and start feeding for about 10 minutes. I let 2 of the deer pass because I was waiting on the big doe in the back to make it into range. She gave me a slightly quartering away shot as she was feeding at 24 yards. The Slick Trick Mag hit home and exited the far side at the crease of the shoulder. She never knew what happened she just bounced off and didn't even run fast and made it about 60 yards and she was down. Its time to buck hunt the rest of the season I have 2 buck tags left to try and possibly fill one Lord willing. The Lord has been good to me this year with the oportunities to go out and hunt and be able to feed my family with what he created. We are truly Blessed.

Thanks enormous. This was our last day of muzzleloader season but we can still use archery equipment so I decided to take the Vortex instead.
