Heartbreak

. My quest for a trophy buck was ended without the monster on the other end of the scope. The picture says it all.

At least you'll have a clearer view of geese and ducks....nice shot!

Had the same thing happen to me last year.  I made up for it during late season and smacked one even bigger.  Don't give up!

In the mid nineties I shot at a buck with a hind foot dangling by some skin and having a terrible time moving. Wanted to end his misery. Short story- I kept the top of the 1 in. sapling I hit instead as a reminder and made a desk stand out of it as a reminder to be more patient.

Got one Saturday.  With lowering light levels in the evening and the scope dialed up.....easy to see sticks near target, but difficult to see the ones close to the barrel out of focus.
