Aaron Kills Bambi

Who's the graffiti bandid in your Avatar ?

That's a pic from my recent hunting trip...

I was going for a sorta redneck-taliban-baseball-traffic barrel look.

Perhaps we should move these last couple posts to a more appropriate place...

Re: Aaron Kills Bambi

Yeah, we had some chili last night...

And technically, Bambi was a young buck, not a doe.

I killed Bambi's mother. [Blocked Image: http://www.xl-logic.com/emoticon/rambo.gif]

Re: Aaron Kills Bambi

Well now that's just sick...

I didn't kill him....Game/trophy hunting is "sick", hunting for food is Human.

"her" it's a doe.

I wouldn't shoot an animal purely for the sake of killing it. Unless it was a creature of nuisance.

But at the same time, I could easily survive on food from the grocery store. I don't have to hunt to survive.
Most stores don't sell venison though.

Not a very good picture of the animal; I have to admit.

Re: Aaron Kills Bambi

I was hunting in central Georgia just a tad northwest of Fort Valley off 96.

I have a better pic of the right shoulder entry...

In hindsight I would've liked to have aimed low on the ribcage just behind the shoulder (maybe 6 inches back from where you see above). Although this shot dropped the doe right where it stood, the bullet entered cleanly through the right shoulder, mushroomed and blew apart the left shoulder (and pretty much everything in between). I ended up having to discard the whole left shoulder.

It was only like a 40yd shot from a treestand... might as well of been walking by with a big target painted on her side. I was using 30-06 Rem CoreLokt softpoints in 150gr. I think she was dead before she hit the ground. I came away with about 25lbs of hamburger and sausage, along with some nice backstrap steaks. Grilled some of those steaks up just the other night as a matter of fact.

Where did you get your 3-point?
