Took a yearling doe first day of IL gun season (today). I didn't really expect buckzilla to come by and it was a long way uphill back to the truck. Knew I'd have to drag it out myself. On top of all that I hunt for venison not a trophy (well if one came by . . . ) anyway she was the first one I saw. Two shots. I thought the first one missed as she turned and ran, but stopped again giving me full broadside. Second shot too out the heart as confirmed when I field dressed her. Turns out first shot was a lung shot that would have taken her down anyway. Anymore I keep the backstrap and the tenderloin whole and the rest becomes venison burger cut with some bacon. All in the freezer now. Life is good.
