Opening morning I missed a nice 5x5 bull. I forgot my range finder at camp and guessed him to be 45 yards when really he ended up being 52. Needless to say my arrow went right under his chest and stuck in a tree behind him. Later that night I was in a tree stand and could hear the buck in the picture coming fast. I set up for the shot where it sounded like he was coming. He ended up coming out of the trees 15 yards more to my right. In my current position I was unable to shoot that direction without standing up in the tree stand and turning half way around. He ran and stopped directly under my stand. I thought a couple of steps and I would have him. Instead he got my wind and sprinted 50 yards behind me and behind a wall of trees. Than the next morning I spotted him coming at about 80 yards. At 70 yards he stopped and made a slow 70-100 yard half circle around me and continued on his way. I changed game plans and tried to catch him closer to his bedding area that night and Monday morning but he never showed up. I am not too disappointed yet, I have him patterned pretty well and will hopefully get another shot next weekend. Hopefully my next post will be him on the ground.
What do you guess on score? I was thinking 175-180ish
