I just came home yesterday from a deer hunt with my pa in-law and my uncle in-law. I left my Triumph in the bed of the truck in a gun case the night before and it got down below freezing. The next day I had a pretty nice 16" buck at 102 yards broadside... I put the cross hairs on his shoulder and pulled the trigger,,, what happened next was hard for me to explain because it happened so fast and was mixed with the emotion of taking a shot at an animal you want to kill... but to simplify things I really don't know what the heck happened!!! I'll admit to being a much better shot on the range then in the field, but that was the weirdest shot that I have taken in a long time... now I'm wondering if a half second hangfire caused me to go haywire during the shot,,, I sure have caught the devil over the last two days for that miss and It would have been the biggest buck killed on our hunt... :cry:
