Well.. i was planning on doing an archery not rifle on the wasatch but i spotted 3 does and 2 bucks about 400 yards away. watched the two bucks fight for a minute. then hiked back to my truck and grabbed my rifle. (they were in a wide open spot and their was no way i was getting close enough for a good shot before dark with a bow) anyways. started RUNNING back up the hill since it was getting close to shooting hours and got about 150 yards away. they were watching me the whole way and didn't even care. loaded 4 shells. Got him in the scope and i was moving a lot from the hike/run. waited till i calmed down and squeezed the trigger at about 150 yards up hill. BAM! heard it hit him and he dropped in his tracks. Rolled about 15 or 20 Yards down hill. Got up to him and he was a pretty nice 2x2. 14 high and 12 1/2 wide. one of his tips was a little broken. is ears were 10 inches... not sure if thats normal but either way thats some big ears. looked at the shot place and i guess i jerked a little when i pulled it. hit him a little back and high :roll: went up and hit his spine.
