Tom, put it on the white line on the belly. I KNOW you shoot better than that. and get that "other" bow out of your head!

You are right Tom, better just go back to that "other bow".  Send me all your trad bows, I'll see that they are not around to cause you troubles...  :biglaugh:

Way to go Damon   :thumbsup:  Shawn sent me the pic yesterday.

The shot was kinda wierd and I figured out the why...it looked like my arrow just bounced right off him.There was a loud bang and then it bounced straight back at first I thought it musta bounced off the tree behind him.My magnus 2 tip was bent a bit and I couldn't find a mark in the tree...besides it was a 2 blade with 660 grs behind it it woulda stuck in a tree

It had to be his rack as he ducked...he was lookin right at me...i shoulda tried to shoot under him or the white line like Brent
said   :banghead:  why was I in his bed anyway   :banghead:  

This ones hard it's been buggin me all day
Shoot straight and have FUN!!

They were moving last night and this morning.Last night my son Noah and I took a quick suburban hunt together to celebrate hi report card and we damn near stalked up on 2 doe through a weedy clay pit.We almost pulled it off but got busted by the only breeze all evening.  :banghead:This morning had 2 doe walk behind me and took a right instead of the desired left.DOHHH!!!! Bout an hour later on the same trail a real nice buck chased 2 doe all around my stand but they all eventually left on that same trail to the right without asking me to take one of em home.Last of all belive it or not, a hen golden pheasant.She was a beautiful little gal.I dont know who raised it or where she came from but she was way up on a mature pine and hardwoood mountain.I saw 2 bobwhite not far from there a while back which is unheard of there so someones raising birds.Pretty good morning in my book.3 more days for me to bowhunt, Im getting nervous.   :scared:

Joe and I went out today after  work and school, we had a couple squirrels milling around at 20 yards, I was hoping they would come in  little closer so Joe could get a shot but the one chased the other off. We shot some stumps and had a good time any way.

Deer are not moving well in the am or pm. Midday movement is pretty good even thou it is hot. The last two days the deer made their move with maybe 15 minutes of shooting light left. Yesterday I climbed down 10 minutes before dark to try and stalk a couple bucks that came out at 80-90 yards and as I picked up my bow after lowering it to the ground I turned and was looking at a nice 6pt. coming right at me, he saw me at the same time and was gone. Tonight I grunted in a nice 8pt. but he got side tracked by a doe about 20 yards away in a nasty thicket. As I was leaving i lowered my bow down I hear a grunt, I quickly pull the bow back up and here he comes, right into 8 yards. It was just to dark and I could not pick a hole. I actually had a text from Curt and than Damon and than another buddy of mine while waiting for him to leave. After 15 minutes he finally turned and walked away. It was 5:32 before he left. Hopefully the weather will turn cool because things are heating up for sure in the deers world! Shawn

Come on NY'ers, it is warm out but it is heating up big time. The next week the woods should explode!! Saw 8 bucks tonight 7 young'uns chasing a doe and Mr. Big just watching. Passed a 6pt. at 10 yards in hopes of the big guy becoming interested. He stayed out about 50 yards. I had 7 1.5 year olds acting stupid for about 20 minutes. The poor doe finally got down wind of me and took the show with her!! Get in the woods asap as it is getting good! Shawn

Over to Lymans my bow only area. Damon sat the same stand a little over a week ago and saw 4 bucks from it. It is in a bottom and overlooks a few apple trees and a small creek. I have killed 8 or 10 bucks form that stand. Shawn

Good luck Shawn. I would love to see ya get a nice deer.
I just got back from town...man the does are everywhere and acting jumpy. I saw two doing recon on another group. They made sure there were no bucks then joined the other does. The bucks were about 150 yards out in the field, I saw antler but couldnt see how big. There were four bucks total. Come on Saturday!!
