Title: Late season doe with old Browning wasp I almost sold
Post by: moose eye levi on January 22, 2011, 10:30:00 PM

Their I was it was 9 degrees out,I had a quiver full of freshly sharpened Magnus I's on some Twig poplar shafts that made up. My old Browning wasp at my hand, I never hunted much with it and almost sold it but I decided to keep it just to have and shoot it was the first trad bow I ever got and was newly determined to gwt a deer with it. Started out by getting winded by a doe who came in where they never come in directly to the NE of me. I thought yeah great way to start this one out well about an hour later I saw 2 deer coming then 3 then 5 then I all of a sudden had 2 button bucks and 8 does at 12yds. Their were to many eyes I couldent draw finally I had one singled out the closest she was alone and I wouldent risk hitting another deer on the shot.Well as another doe was making her way in evry head turned that direction (directly away from me to the north) and I picked a spot drew and released "The poplar shaft flew as if it had eyes" pinringed her diden't go 50yds. had to track both halves with the Magnus I. My buddy Morgan Anderson and I cut a meat pole, hauled her out of their, and gutted her a little ways from the stand. Glad I diden't sell that one now.
