Nicely done!
Thanks!
I told my wife she's gonna have to put up with me being home until later in the year now, no vacation for her. I'm going to still try to get a few slick heads for the freezer, but that'll be when the temps drop.
FINALLY BAGGED MY FIRST DEER EVER & DID IT IN MY FIRST BOW SEASON!
at about 9:30am today (10-3-11) I had a small doe come near and was heading away so I let out a doe bleat and it came right back to me. I ended up getting a broadside pass through shot at about 15 yards. She took off and made it about 80 yards but it was an easy track. Felt great to get that first deer under my belt. Had it back home cleaned and butcherd in time to have fresh ground venison for dinner. can't wait to get back out next weekend!
Ugh, rough hunt. Darn near wore myself out hanging a tree stand. Was warm and I was soaked.
Took a shot at a doe and missed. Estimated she was 40 yards and shot and went just under her rib cage. Went to retrieve the arrow and stepped off 47 yards. She was quartered away, the arror flew a perfect path, just need to hold higher.
Still crying over my son leaving my rangefinder out in the rain and killing it
I'm learning and will keep at it, this will be my year.
I'm an IT guy, INGO is up ALL the time
and I do spend most of my time shooting.... it's just a Glock and not the Hoyt
buddy of mine has a rangefinder he's gonna let me borrow
she was barely guartering away, so it was a pretty tight shot. Arrow was perfectly straight where I wanted it, just a hair low.
Gonna get a deer with my bow, I'm getting closer
