Hunt Story

Sitting in my stand at 5:15 pm, I saw a deer go through the woods moving fast. I couldn't tell what it was. Shortly after that a larger deer was walking through the woods and stopped. I looked through my scope and saw it was a big buck. I shot and he fell. He kicked for about 15 minutes then stopped kicking, I went to retrieve him and he jumped up and took off. I went back to the house and called a tracker. He arrived around 2 hours later and we were able to retrieve the deer 52 yards from where he fell when I shot.
