How bummed would you be after watching the vid?

[elks96]

Watching this video tonight with my son before we leave for MT tomorrow.

2 things… Be sure of your target and what is laying right behind it.

Right at the 21 minute mark is the kill shot. Listen closely, one seems to ask is he alone. Reply was not sure… in the video however you can see the buck laying right behind the shot buck.

If I am seeing the buck laying down he is way out of his ears. Not sure his points but the buck is super wide laying down…

Imagine packing your rifle like a purse.

 

[SS!]

I was pretty bummed after seeing the hugging.

I watched that video a while ago and thought the same thing. The bedded buck looks like a way bigger framed buck and it’s obvious the shooter can’t even see him laying there.

My son was really freaked out about the purse. Especially as they were looking for the buck. Jump that buck up winded and no way you getting a shot off…

I’m pretty sure that’s the StHealthy hunter rifle cover. Social media purchase for sure!!

There were 3 of them and none of them saw that buck behind the target. Unless the angle was different, how could they have missed it?

 

[BrowningRage]

Gotta be hard for him to watch it back knowing that bigger buck was right there. I'm glad he didn't hit them both. He got a nice one though, Id be happy about that.

Did you feel left out?

I am am wondering if the shoot laying prone may have changed the view angle. And the camera man was looking in camera and not able to see on small viewer. But still it was pretty obvious from the camera angle...

Worry a little bit less about your extreme back country video for social media and a little more time in the glass and that guy would have what looks like a buck pushing 30”

I paused the video and looked the right side of the buck was almost double his ear length. I bet he was over 30 by a few inches.

Seen a video of shedcrazy in Colorado the other day. Some dude in their party shoots a raghorn bull and a six point stands up out of cedars ???that’s one that will haunt that dude forever!

It looks like he's just got a fork on his right side but, I agree, he is waaaaaaay out there as far as width goes.

It's the latest in fashion All of the high end stores are carrying it for Christmas LOL

AND, If you own a 6.5, you don’t have to imagine carrying it like a purse because that is the only way you can carry one!

The back buck looks like a big 3 point to me. It doesn’t matter he was just out to kill a buck. I am surprised they would track a Buck with that purse contraption on that rifle. He must have invented it.

I agree with some others. I'd guess from his angle he couldn't see the bedded buck when he shot. What gets me is him following the blood trail with his gun packed away out of service.

And poking his downed buck with his poles and his rifle a good 15-20 seconds from being usable. If the buck was still alive, he would be in trouble. I like poking mine with the muzzle of a loaded gun just in case.

Does he shave in camp or just not grow facial hair quickly? I would be beyond 5 o’clock shadow in 5 days. Glad he only hit one of the bucks. Surprised he only got one buck.

Yeah I wish we had a better look at him, I was to the left of the camera a little so the tree on the left blocked him from me, think he is a 4 with a front fork cheater on his left side and a goofy wide 3 on his left! Cool looking buck for sure! Thanks for watching!
