Lone Star Hunting Forum

I had seen this deer on camera and wanted her taken out for two reasons, but I thought it was two different deer. Come to find out the same deer had two issues. The first was a picture I posted a while back of a deer with a leg injury, but when we shot her I didn't know this was the one with the leg injury. The reason we picked her was because of the large lump on her neck. So we go both of the deer we where after with one shot. We saw 4 does tonight, this was not the oldest one, but I felt it was the right one to take out. He shot her with a .243 at about 60 yards, and she went about 40 yards. Blood at the site he shot her at, but no other blood until where she fell. Unfortunately she was only 2.5.





Lump on neck



Previous injury from a crappy shooter.





Perfect heart shot.

Congrats to ya'll Did you cut open that lump on her neck???
I can't believe A deer can run off after a hart shot like that.

Thanks, no I sure didn't. But I do still have the head in my gut bucket. What would it tell me?
