Well, I made meat this morning. It was kind of interesting but trying. I got in about 6:15am. At first light I have a doe and fawn come into the apple tree I am watching and I decide to take the fawn, it is only about 10 yards but I am up pretty high. I draw anchor and shoot right over him, yes him it turns out to be a button, he come right under me and I decide not to shoot. Just than I look back and another fawn comes up the hill looking like "where did everybody go"? the deer turns and gives me a hard quartering shot, I draw pick my spot and release, sounds good but did not see my hit. The deer runs down past me and stops at about 22-23 yards. I see it is bleeding but up high, I than realized I shot thru its ear. It gets nervous and starts to walk broadside, I draw pick a spot and release, perfect this time, the arrow entered high in the shoulder and took out both lungs. I got down right away and started trailing, there was quite a bit of stomach contents so I was gonna back out, but replayed the shot in my head and I knew it was good. I followed the blood about 60 yards and found him laying there, yes him. It was another button, Mom must of had twin buck fawns. I was still happy as I have some venison for the table for me and Dad. No pics. Larry, you know me, I do not get much into all that stuff, maybe a big buck and I will show a pic. but that is about it! I will be back out at 3pm. for another try. I am shooting most anything as I have to have some pretty serious surgery the 20th. of Nov.. It is of the type that is pretty personal so I will not go into detail. Take care!! Shawn
