Great shooting! No chance of stalking closer?


I was hoarding when hoarding wasn't cool.

Yes we could of got closer and that was the plan originally, we spotted the wide buck first and we had a spot where we thought we could get within 400 yards. Then my buck showed up and we decided the best way to shoot both bucks is from the distance we where. Idea behind it is they wouldn't know where the shot came from and not spook which it worked out perfect

Congrats and thanks for your explanation. Not that you owed one to anybody, sounds like the right decision.
