Ever mess up knowing you was making a mistake?

Yeah but he wasn’t sure if that until he was making his way out. No chance I’m shooting an unknown deer just at the break of daylight either. Good way to make a mistake.

Exactly right. I saw enough frame that my gut said shoot .last tag and don't know if hes a 6 pt or as 30pt. He appeared to be a ten or more with kickers as he was leaving.

Ready to see how this one ends for ya GG.

Almost made the wrong decision last night...big buck comes in late under my tree. I had just about convinced myself it was Mr BigStuff and I almost drew back, but hesitated just long enough to realize it was a nice 7 I am saving for my wife. She wants to kill one with the crossbow but has been in bed for a week with an infection in her side. Maybe in a week or 2 there will still be some good ones around.

Well I'm sitting in the same chair right now.

Then why the thread? the mistake is he didn't shoot. It wasn't that the deer wasn't big enough. Or that's what Im getting from the thread.

The mistake was not shooting him at 50yd broad side while everything in my gut was yelling shoot. I had no reason to think he wouldn't be there another 10 minutes so I could be positive . 5 minutes later he had walked straight away down to about 175yd and a brighter spot.

You're very consistent with those 'simple answers'; no salve needed here! I'll be gun and bowhunting this weekend-if I post a gun kill I'll be sure to have some KY handy for you

Why are you so butt hurt? This site is called TexasBOWhunter.

[DRT]

Yes but at bow distance.

This.

I don't know if it was mistakes, but twice I've shot does in thick brush as they crossed my shooting lane when I could hear a deer behind them. At full draw and ready to release, it's hard to pass up a clean shot when you only have about 2 seconds to decide. I'll always wonder if they had big bucks on their tail.

Why the air gun?

Because that’s what he wants to use.

I guess that’s what you assume, but I wasn’t asking you. But, thanks anyway.

He obviously has a motive...

Ok. I gotcha. Looking forward to pics of this Ghost. Next time your gut is screaming, shoot! Then shoot! ...You must have a heck of a honey hole.
