Still shot out, but roosted the big one this morning, and saw which way he goes off roost. Tomorrow morning, he should go down, and he will be the score I'm looking for.

My boy got one today!!!   He smoked him at 50 yds.  He spooked at a passing car and was still at 40-45 yds and ran to the right.  I mean dropped him where he stood.  It was awesome.  Watch for the video.
