Video of me screwing up a really easy shot

[Gatehouse]

This moose was 356 yards away, a real easy shot. I guess I didn't take it as seriously as I should and shot the thing too far back....He hid behind a tree so I had to move my position a bit to get a shot at him...It was either shoot him in the ass or the head/neck, so I went for the front

If you watch carefully you can see the second bullet mid flight.

My buddy (the camera man who keeps saying "not yet" because he doesn't want me to shoot until he has the moose in the lens) is a hunting guide and they needed a cook for the first 3 weeks this season, so invited me up to work and hunt. We had a blast, as usual. In the "interview at the end I am tryign hard not to giggle as he always makes me recite gun/ammo stuff on film becuase he knows I like to experiment. Calls me the "mad scientist"

Anyway, we goof around alot...

Anyway, bad first shot but alls well that ends well!
