Took this cow in southwest Colorado during the first week of elk season. Bow used was a BW PTFX 59@29 with a Carbon Express Heritage 350 arrow tipped with a Razorcap 125.

The urban archery deer season started up on the 6th and i got out last Fri in lynchburg. I set up in my stand at around 4:30 and watched a turkey feed on some old corn cobs at around 200 yards. Well, right at about sunset i hear her commin. the doe stepped out into the field at about 15 yards. she stood perfect, broadside and askin for an arra. my heart is going and im feeling confident when i see the arrows fletching fly between her legs and in a flash shes gone.So i get down from the stand making sure to be a loud as possible and when i turn guess what i see. the exact same deer is standing in the exact same spot just watching. i scramble to get an arrow ready and when i finally do... i missed again. it was low again but i even noticed me dropping my bow arm as it happened. Well, i guess it just wasnt meant to be

I dont miss i give warning shots

Saw three doe last Saturday night and three again tonight.  Too far for a shot with a stick bow but great to be out there again.  Really don't care if I get one or not this early.  Did pop a groundhog with the .22 this morning :-).

I originally started a 2008 Success Post but now realize it should have been here all along.  My bad.  I've had a good start to the season, taking a solid buck on just the third evening of our NE season, and followed up by two mature does since then.  First doe allowed for my daughters to blood trail and "help" with all the post-kill tasks.  Fun day!  Doe tags are darn near unlimited here in NE this year and I'll probably take a few more before it's all over, and still looking for an even bigger buck on second either-sex tag.

Man! Some of you guys are killing rabbits and squirrels and I can't hit something as big as a deer. I sure do need more practice   :(

Congratulations to all.
So far this fall I have shot a black bear, 2 antelope, 1 elk, 1 coyote, and this.... A dream come true for me. I'm pretty cheap when it comes to taxidermy      mounting things but this one is going full body. Practiced for 20 years for the shot.          

Good luck all.
The hunt is the trophy!
