Having a great season so far, I managed to arrow this doe hunting on a small 5 acre piece of land in Lexington Oklahoma. I had just enough time to get in an afternoon hunt and about 45 minutes before dark a group of 6 doe came into my area and this one got close enough. The shot was sub 20 yards clean pass through, she was down in less than 50 yards after impact.

Shooting a 45lb Hoyt Dorado with Gold tip traditional arrows 100 grain brass inserts and 135 grain Zwickey Eskilitie broad head. Then to put icing on the cake I was able to get a hunt in at the family farm in Higgins Oklahoma over the weekend. I saw one doe during the morning sit and once it warmed up around 1pm I climbed out of the stand to do a little in season scouting. 500 or so yards up the ridge I found an area covered with fresh rubs, so I hung a stand for the evening sit over a couple of the rubs. I wasn’t in the stand an hour when this joker came through my shooting lane at 22 yards. I hit anchor set the gap and pulled till my clicker went off. I watched the arrow impact the deer right in the crease behind the leg and I knew I had put a great shot on him. I heard him crash so I didn’t give him more than 30 minutes after the shot. He is my best buck so far with traditional gear and I couldn’t be happier.
