    Legacy- 2016 Deer Season

    in Big / Small Game

    Posted

    Had three doe come by this morning, nice broadside shot 45-50yrds, put the scope on the shoulder of the first and let one fly watch doe 1 and two take off across and up hay field, I'm feeling good about that while the third doe swung around in front of me and stopped broadside 50-60yrds. So I put the scope on her shoulder and let one fly, going to fill up my tags! Well I see the shot on the second impact behind the doe but under. She runs off. I'm a one shot one kill type of fella. I shoot all year round, hold great groups at 100 with my shotgun. I found both slugs and spent quite a bit of time making sure I didn't hit them. Both appear to be clean misses low. This about sums up my hunting season, have to head to the range and see what's going on. I have a feeling I have a scope issue. Which will bring the season total to broken rifle scope (in Alaska no less, requiring purchase of new scope), broken bow (requiring purchase of new bow, new bow requiring purchase of new arrows and ......), and likely now needing a new shotgun scope. I'd quit but it's not in my nature. Good luck all, hopefully you guys get some luck out there. Sure seem to be on their feet today, I'm on the couch.

    Take pictures of it. Mark in on a gps, if you see him in it take a picture of him. Save any pictures on trailcams etc and note where and when those were taken. Take pics of the car and plate, each time you see it and write notes of when you spoke to him and advised of the trespass and have seen the car. That will make it a slam dunk for DEC and prosecutor if it comes to that.
