I had only doe tags left, and had 3 doe show up prior to daylight. I only have the stock semi-buckhorn sights and could only see their silhouette inside my blind. Watching the 3 deer in front of me as the woods began to take on shades of color, one of the deer raised her head. I could tell by the shape of her head that she was an adult doe and not a yearling. At around 6:55, the deer had been there for at least 15 minutes and I couldn't take it any longer. I got the best silhouette of my sights, knowing the front bead had to be deep in the notch of the rear sight (which was nearly bottomed out to sight at 50 yards). I then moved the rifle to super impose the sight picture over the broadside doe at 35 yards...
Shot was a bit high and a bit back, but a very effective "bang/flop" kill. The doe was dressed out and dropped off at the processor in time to get home, shower and stretch out for nearly an hour before time to wake my wife and get ready for church.
I can't wait to put my new Henry to work on some feral hogs! I have a feeling my other rifles are going to see some neglect in the days/years ahead.
...by the way, welcome to the forum from Western North Carolina!!
