Hunter curve strikes again
« on: December 05, 2008, 12:41:00 PM »
I went out yesterday evening, completely oblivious to the temperature and ignoring the weatherman's warnings. With my pocket's full of handwarmer, and only one glove, (I found out later), I climbed into the stand at about 2:45. At 4:15 a little eight pointer that I've been watching all season snuck by without a clue I was there. At 4:24 two deer came sneaking up the creek and into my shooting lane. The shot was at about a whopping 5 yards. The arrow hit high and buried to the Fletch. I watched the deer run up the hill and heard the deer go down. Without much of a bloodtrail, I just walked back and forth until I saw her laying under a hedge tree. As I write this, there is a roast from last night's harvest cooking in the crockpot smothered with cream of mushroom, and onion soup mix. I can't wait.

Great job Tripper!  Those close downhill shots are tough for me.  I always tend to shoot high as well.  Sounds like she was down quick.  

That roast recipe sounds good.

Good job!!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki
