Punched tag #1 a little after daylight this morning. He was cruising and looking for does. Couldn't tell much about him when I shot as he was moving quick. Warped the ground so I reloaded and kept an eye on him. About 5 mins later he started trying to get up so I squeezed a shot through a small hole and got down. Got to him at about 5 yards and was still breathing. Hated to shoot him again but he tried to get up again. First shot must have hit a limb as it was perfect in rib cage but exploded on impact. Second shot hit him high and didn't enter cavity due to him on ground. Third shot did it. :) He would have died from first shot but not without a fight. Pretty big bodied deer but short tines.
