So I had posted a picture of a Whitetail that I was hunting in Wyoming. All of the general seasons closed and I am fortunate to have a late season tag. I went to put up a Locon Friday after work. After I hung the stand I decided to sit until dark. After sitting in the stand for 5 minutes I catch a doe working her way to me and big boy is following her. I move in my stand to get a good shot and take aim. He is 135 yards quartering to me. I put the cross hairs on the front crease of his shoulder and pull the trigger. I see dirt fly up and realize I just missed a Giant. I got down to look for blood and 100 percent miss. I leave and drive to the nearest BLM land and shoot a couple times and miss the target all 5 times. With it getting dark I have no time to sight it in. the next morning comes and I take my bow. I am a die hard bowhunter so I am fine with this. Right as it is getting daylight I see a doe to my left. Then I see him at my 11 moving from left to right. He is 30 yards but to much brush in the way. He ends up hitting a clearing and precedes to walk straight to me and turns left. He is at 20 yards and behind a Russian olive tree. Him and the doe go away from me into a thicket. I grunt at him and he comes barreling out. I do not have time to use the range finder and guess him to be 50. I shoot and MISS AGAIN. He ends up being 60 and I shoot just below him. I have just missed a stud twice in two sittings. I shot my gun at lunch and had to move my gun up 34 clicks (MRAD). When I shot the first two times I hit about 10 feet in front of the target. How in the Hell it got off so much is beyond me. It is grouping after I adjust it. I did not see him the next day or Sunday but did pass up a small 11 point. Guess I have 16 days to hope for a third chance. When I missed him with the bow he ran about a 100 yards and stood there and ended up walking into a thicket so I don't think he is to spooked but I would bet he was locked down with the doe I saw him with. IT SUCKS
