With my heart racing in my throat I took a few deep breaths to calm myself, drew back and let the arrow fly. It seemed like the arrow flew in slow motion and hit 10ring. She ran 50yds and crashed on the hillside tumbling down to the creek. The arrow clipped the top of both lungs and right through the middle of the heart. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life.

That is exactly what it's all about!!! Congrats on a great hunt. :smiley_cheers:

Heading back out Saturday morning in a spot that has produced year in and year out. Will be patient in hopes to see a Buck deer stroll through. There are definitely good genes running out there.

Fairly quiet on here. I haven't been out, but once. That will all change here shortly. Most of my hunting requires travel, so there's not much point in burning myself out before things start to heat up. I may head out locally on Sunday. Next weekend I may head down to my mom's place, then Plumbrook will be right around the corner (10/22). For one of my other antlerless hot spots I have to wait for soccer season to end.

Saw 10 deer in 2 hours on stand. Had a young 8 pushing does at about 6:50. Hopefully his big brother shows up in the morning.

Had 3 does come in as soon as I was getting down. I put the stak on them and got within 20yds. I couldn't bring myself to shoot yet and she knew something was wrong. She started coming in closer trying to pick me off. I was laying on my stomachwith an arrow nocked while she was stomping and staring at 10 yds. It was cool being that close on the ground. I could have easily killed one with a compound this am

Had a great hunt this evening. Saw a ton of deer. At 7 pm I still had 9 deer totally circling me. I tried to take a few pics with my phone. If I have anything worthy I'll post them in the morning. Could have killed deer on every sit this weekend, but no shooter bucks. I decided not to take a doe at this point due to my upcoming Plumbrook hunt. I should be back down to this property in two weeks.

Pic isn't very good, but here is a 7 point that was at about 10 yards. Fugger wouldn't leave.



And here's one of the doe...looks farther than it was. She was at 28 yards when I took this.

I just dont get it. why aint ya shootin any of em?!

Those doe will be my live decoys in a few weeks. Like I mentioned in the other post, I'm going to Plumbrook for a controlled hunt in 6 days. I plan to fill doe tags there and give my resident doe a pass for now.
