LAST EDITED ON Nov-14-05 AT 12:48PM (MST)[p]Got back last night from half of my boys hunt. Tito scored first morning on this nice three point.
Sunrise had us on top of a ridge glassing the flats for anything that was legal . We glassed a small fork that I could not put eyeguards on him for the life of me. So we had to let him go. We decided to head to a different vantage point before it got to hot. It was just a matter of time before were going to bed. Finally we glassed a nice four point feeding about 1500 yards away. We made a game plan to get closer. By the time we got to where he was everything looked different, I started glassing under the junipers just incase he had already bed down. Sure enough I glassed Tito's buck between two junipers deep in the shade. We made our way to exactly 302 yards. I told Tito that the shot was going to be have to made from here. He had a hard time finding the buck in the shade so I yanked out the 15's so he would know exactly how he was positioned. His breathing got a little heavier after seenig the buck bedded broadside to us. "OK boy, now you know where he's at, relax put the cross hairs behind the front shoulder and squeeze". It took him a while to get steady on the bipod but we had plenty of time, the buck didn't know we were there.
Finally he said OK dad here we go. Just relax son and squeeze BOOM Tito's shot was true. He shot right thru the top of the heart. This was a different buck than the one we had glassed but still a keeper
Now we have to go find Gabe one. To be continued!!!!!!!!
