i got in my shooting house today around 4 pm, i just got seated good when a buck came out,i hadn't even got a cap on the seneca when he came out. he was way out there over half way to the end of the field and my plot is 320 yards to the end. i got every thing ready and started calling to him with a doe in heat can call. he looked my way and just stood there, i hit the can again and he took a few steps closer. i sat there for a couple minutes and he turned away and started walking. i hit it again and blew my grunt call, he stopped and turned and started to me a few steps and then he started running. he got to about 90 yards and stopped looking right at the shooting house. i had the bead right on him and he turned to the right and started walking towards the creek, i called with the grunt call again and he stopped. i took careful aim and boom, the smoke cleared and he was on the ground. hes a good buck but only a 5 point, i didn't get back to the house till after dark and its raining, i got him skinned and in the cooler on ice and just got the little .45 cleaned. i will get a picture of him in the morning. when i took the shot i guessed it to be about 90 to a 100 yards, i stepped it off when i walked back to my shooting house and i came up with a 136 yards. i was using 80grs ffg with the prb and i held over his back about 4 or 5 inches i think. i hit high but it took out his spine and made a pass through. extreme damage, i was aiming at the heart/lung center but hit way forwards high.
