    First deer with the Grendel

    I caught this fella sneaking in following a doe that I assumed that I spooked. He stayed in the brush for the most part but started to head toward my shooting lane, I had to give him a "BAAA" he stopped for me to take the shot at 50 yards. He reared up on his hind legs fell on his face and I thought he was done but he managed to get up and bolt out of sight. I could still hear him thrashing around so I knew he was down. Found him less than 15 yards form where I shot him.
