Shot was only 150 yards but the wind was unreal today. The signs warning of extreme blow over hazard north of Laramie said gusts of 65+ mph and over by Wheatland where he got the antelope, said 55+ mph. Im guessing it was 30+ gusting to 45 when he shot; 90 deg cross wind. After three years of not chambering a round, he gets two animals with two shots.

Load is 150grn Hornady SST, 39.0grn IMR3031, Remington brass and Remington 9 1/2 LRP. Got this one at 4:45pm on 12/9. I'd also missed one earlier in the week.

Who would want to shoot a little Hill Country buck like me, anyway ???? Congrats to all the ladies and men who tagged a deer this year. That buck of Coondawg's is truly great. You are gonna have to hunt a long time to top that. What a beauty. If you don't like Robert E. Lee, you won't like it on this ranch. JGM
