Well Halloween evening we put some venison in the freezer. Nothing to brag about but this 100lb field dressed 3×3 will make some fine eating. He first came out at around 15yrds from my ground blind but he was very nervous and on high alert. I think he must have sensed something. He never snorted or stomped. He just turned and trotted off before we could get a shot. Then about 30 minutes later he came out again at about 30yrds . Put the crosshairs on his shoulder and touched it off. He jumped up with left front leg dangling and took off on a 100yrd death run pumping out a blood trail a blind man could follow. We were using my CVA Kodiak Pro Magnum 45 cal with a 385 grain No Excuses Lead Cast Bullet over a patch and 90 grains of 777. Bullet entered left front shoulder and exited the right rib cage right at the diaphragm. Took out both lungs and creased the heart.
