Sooooo, after seeing this bow shoot so well for me, I decided I had to go hunt!
I went to a ground blind close to the house this morning. It was a fine cool morning. It was real foggy. Not long after daylight, I caught some movement. It was the first of 3 bucks to come my way. The next one was a really nice buck. I also had a little spike and a doe come in. The smaller 2 bucks kept harassing the doe, and kept her jumping a bit. After a while the big buck decided he wanted in on the fun, and he pushed her out of the area. After a little while, just the doe came back. Being alone now, she was very calm and eased right in front of my blind at about 10 or 11yds. I picked a spot and let an arrow fly. The shot looked real good, and she busted out of there, stage left!
I couldn’t stand waiting, so I got out to look at the arrow. This is what I found:
I was not at all impressed, and began to wonder whether the shot was as good as I had originally thought!
I took up the trail probably a bit sooner than I should have! It was pretty sparse at first, but really picked up after about 25 or 30yds!
After about another 30yds, I found her!!!!
So, less than 24hrs after getting the bow, I had my first deer with Hope! This was also my first deer this season, and the first deer off my new ranch!
I can’t wait to see what the rest of the month holds for Hope and I!!!!
Hopefully, more to come!!!!
