The most unexplainable thing I have seen while hunting had to do with me and a Buck I shot. I heard it grunting in the thick pines. Buck came out of thick pines in a hurried walk. I seen it was big enough to shoot. Buck got behind me and I was about 25 feet up in a tree climber. I had about a 30 yard shot right down middle of back was the only shot I had. I shot and the buck went down and was was on his side kicking and what looked to be dieing. After about 15 seconds or so of watching Buck on ground and waiting on Him to stop moving, all of a sudden the Buck jumps up and hops off. I look for probably 2 hours for this buck and there was zero sign that I had hit and wounded this buck. No hair and no blood. Zero sign of a wounded deer even though the buck was on ground kicking violently and what I thought was dieing. I will never get over this happening. It was an unbelievable sight. I was not happy to say the least. Since then I don’t hesitate to put another round or to in a down deer. Lesson learned.
