Crazy Coues Deer Story with Dave Maher
Show Notes:
I just had a crazy experience with a recent client on a Coues deer hunt, and Dave Maher’s here to help me unpack it all. Dave’s been on the show before, and he’s my go-to guy when it comes to gun stuff. My client was physically challenged, and I hunted with him for three days. I found several opportunities, but unfortunately, we couldn’t get to any fast enough.
I also had Ryan with me, and he later found a good buck. Even though my client could shoot and he had a good setup, we were too far away. I decided to try to get as close as I could, but the best I could do was 700 yards. All of a sudden, the buck comes out of a tree, and my client hits the buck’s shoulder. He took a second shot, and the buck shot straight up into the air and dove forward into some trees, but he was still alive!
We moved in a little closer to wait for the buck to do something, and he eventually stood up. My client shot again, but missed. At this point, we don’t have another shot, but the deer got up again. Ryan got his eyes on him, and the buck walked into some trees. From here, we go on a crazy chase to find this deer and he eventually goes down for good. Here, Dave gives his analysis of the hunt and his take on why this buck was so hard to take down.
