Sometimes it happens (video)
« on: November 29, 2008, 11:49:00 PM »
I had one right under me today and whiffed. I kept telling myself to shoot low when they're in close but I didn't listen to myself and shot right over her back. Trying to film a hunt is hard too especially when things go awry. Good thing I missed,LOL! Saw a couple bucks but I'm tagged out for those and have one doe permit left for public land. Bow hunting during gun season......gotta love it!

Excellent!  My favorite sound hearing the leaves crunch.

Yep that is exactly how those leaves sounded yesterday, just never heard those footsteps crunching thru myself!!  Very nice Arwin, that is hard to film and hunt solo. Good luck!! dino

Way to go Arwin!  The bare ground looks funny, we've had snow up here for the last 2 weeks.

Been there, done that   :banghead:  

Anyone who hasn't missed one, hasn't hunted much!

I had several of them stare at me then keep feeding this year. I was wearing my Cabela's Wooltimate outfitter high plains. I would have thought it was too light in color for tree stands, but it seems like they just look right through you. Cool, huh!

Nice video!
