Title: Drinkin every last drop.....
Post by: Yohon on January 30, 2015, 09:34:00 PM: Bow season ends at dark tomorrow evening and I'm trying to milk every last drop out of it that I can. Been playin hit and miss with some deer and finally with some high winds from the right direction the plan came together. This doe was leading a string of a 1/2 dozen others thru the timber and I took a walking shot at 13 yards, not good at walking shots and hit a bit back. I had just used my KME the other day and put another wicked edge on the 150 grain buzzcut that I used. Deer went at the most 100 yards with a walk along kinda blood trail.

Used a black magic ILF riser and even had this one rigged up with a feather rest, that was a first for me and the dang thing shoots really good!Its a cheapo one, waiting on some Trap feather rest to get here and shoot a good one.

I was out as well this evening hunting from the ground. Had two doe. One running up to me I rushed the shot at 15 foot and shot right in front of the big doe. All I could do was laugh out loud

Nice blood trail too. I'm surprised that you don't have snow on the ground? We're pretty well buried up here and I'm not that far north of you. Congratulations buddy!

Post by: 2wfstlhunting on January 31, 2015, 06:42:00 PM: Nice. And fortunate. I have been trying hard to get out these last few weeks of the season... and I just love being out in the snow. But a lot of the days have been just to cold, and THEN when I have gotten out the deer just seem to have vaporized off of the planet. Tomorrow the temperature should be above 25 for long enough to enjoy a few late hours in the tree stand. Then snow is coming in and reported to be around zero in the next day or so. I did get the chance to take a picture of an end of season deer that just about says it all as he ate the corn my wife insisted on feeding him behind my house ( in the "no shoot zone")

Post by: Steve Kendrot on January 31, 2015, 07:14:00 PM: Nice work John. Looks like a good one. How many bows you got now?!

Spent the last hunt in the sika woods. Ice sounded like breaking glass but they never showed themselves before dark. 2 more months and I'll be after them again. In New Zealand!
Title: Re: Drinkin every last drop.....
Post by: Yohon on January 31, 2015, 08:16:00 PM: Yep....took it down to the wire myself and didn't see a deer,that's OK been a great season and now to get ready for next season.....
