Gilbert, the doe was my first and she took me 10 years. Hope it's sooner for you. Jim

Dim the lights and sit in a comfy chair. Think about the hunt.

They will move.

Thanks for the kind words everybody. Blacktailchaser, yeah she really is a trophy in my eyes. I remeber dropping her off at the butcher, when I told them I wanted her caped out for a mount they looked at me like I was crazy. They have no idea what we put into this love we call bowhutning. Jim
