Always been taught to take the ethical shot and I have passed that on to my son...
Last night at 5:20 the buck I have been seeing on camera for a month...
10 pt 140+ comes in from behind my feeder with a doe under there....
He won’t come up....
With my nocs I can make him out...it’s him....he is standing a foot to the right of my winch handle at 130 yds....
I can only make out his rack with my 3x9x40 Leopold....
Check again with nocs....hasn’t moved
Put my scope on him....can’t see his body....in the shadows and losing light fast
This back and forth between scope and nocs for 15 mins it seems....
Tried calling him up with doe call...didn’t work.....he drifted back into the trees
I would have been guessing where I was shooting...and educated guess but none the less....I couldn’t make him out with this pos scope.....
I didn’t squeeze the trigger....
