Got one with my new bow
« on: November 07, 2012, 09:12:00 PM »
I bought a 55# Dwyer Defiant off the classifieds about two weeks ago and I've been shooting it a lot. I love this bow and how quiet it is. I wasn't seeing much for deer tonight, just a doe and two yearlings about 200 yards away. It was getting about to the end of shooting light when I heard a sound behind me. Then this guy runs out to about 20 yards. I shoot right over the top of him and he jumps a few yards to the left. I quickly grabbed another arrow. I picked a spot right on his front shoulder and watched as my arrow hit that exact spot. It's not the deer I was hoping for, but I didn't have to go to the grocery store for tonight's supper. I'm not much for cooking, but he tasted great!

For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.
