Title: Missed one at 30 yards
Post by: Onpoint on April 06, 2013, 04:45:27 PM
After bumpin into two other hunters, 3 about 7 miles, 3 henned up gobblers and 10 baby wipes I finally got on a bird that wanted to play the game. I was set up where when I could see him he'd be well within range. Next thing I know there he is 30 yards and I MISSED. I've killed a lot of birds and only twice has been because I drilled the side of a tree a few yards from me, but that's hat happened this morning. Same thing happened last year in the same place. Last year after that happened though i went on a killin spree. Funny thing is this morning my wife said " maybe you should shoot a tree, and that'll change ya luck" lol... I'm laughin about it now but a cpl hours ago I sure wasn't laughin... I was so pissed ... Haha

10 yards miss here. Bunch of splinters is all I got. Should have waited 2 more seconds.
