Pops dearly wanted to slam a Buck with his longbow,so was always attired to do just that. Good Bucks are fickle and those stars didn't align(mainly because I was spread thin,with others in the party),so I handed him my 22-250AI after glassing him up a rather nice specimen.

I didn't catch any hint of regret.........................
