Well he got him in the end

I ran across a friend yesterday and while talking to him he showed me a picture that blew my mind and the story that went with it was even better.

 

Two seasons ago him and his dad was hunting on a piece land around 80 acres. My friend was watching a few does in a field when he notice a monster buck in the corner watching the does. He said before he could get his scope up it was gone. His dad was hunting a logging road not to far from him. Well you might all ready know what happens next ( BANG) yep dad dropped the hammer on him. My friend got out of his  stand and rushed over too see if was the buck he had seen, and found his dad saying boy you wont believe what I shot!!!! They looked for hours and the next day also but could not find the deer not even any blood or fur. So they just thought bad shot placement, extra strong deer, or a miss. Well over this past weekend my friend took his son to the same piece of land and set up a pop up blind in that area. As the sun came up they saw a few does and small bucks but nothing worth shooting. When my buddy saw what he thought was a deer bedded down in some thick brush. After a few hours and this deer had not moved at all he got and walked down to see what was up. And that's when he found the remains of the monster from two years ago complete! Only thing missing was half of one of the horns he said it looked like a coon had been chewing on it. So they took the skull and rack to his father and asked if he still thought he had missed the shot. I will be honest I did not believe the story two years ago or yesterday till he showed me the picture. I am glad that his dad got his deer even knowing it is damage, and glad that my buddy and his sun could be the ones to bring it to him.
