My daughter in law expressed an interest in trying her hand at big game hunting. She passed Hunter Safety and drew a tag to hunt in this part of NW Wyoming. She had tagged along a few years ago and wanted her chance this year. She set some criteria for her mule deer hunt. She wanted a 4 point. Doable. She wanted a buck to stand broadside at 100 yards and not move for 20 minutes. Uh-Oh. On the second day of her hunt, we found a buck chasing after some does. He stopped broadside at 200 yards. I told her it was 100 yards. After lots of getting set up, she let the lead fly. The first shot was a clean miss. The buck just stood there after the miss. Another 5 minutes passed and she shot again. This time she got her buck.
