[QUOTE="Lincoln Co Archer, post: 4554986, member: 6025"] Mine makes me sick to this day as well. Still in high school and I carried my future wife hunting for the first time. We had seen an 11pt with a couple of stickers all summer, but we never laid eyes on him hunting until that morning. In a stand on the edge of a grown up hillside, and 2 does come down in front of us about 50 yards. Me wanting to impress the woman decided to shoot the lead doe. As soon as I shoot, I catch movement up the hill and he was bouncing through the briars like a mule deer. If I would have waited just a minute more I would have had a shot at him as he was on the same trail as the does. He would have been all over 170 and to my knowledge was never killed. I literally almost cried when he went over the top of the hill out of my life forever. [/QUOTE]
