I have been having some bad luck bowhunting this season, i made what I thought was a good hit on a doe only to loose her. I called in several deer only to be spotted trying to draw. Don't get me wrong except for the doe I was having a good time but just a little frustrating. Tue. AM I saw no deer at all so I got in the stand a little early on Tues. afternoon thinking I might catch one moving mid day. I saw nothing until about ten to five in the afternoon. I called in a small buck. I have been having back trouble so it has been tough to get comfortable in my stand, i sit a while then stand a while well you get the picture. I always wear a safety harness it only makes good sense. This little buck slowly make his way to my stand, the trouble with this stand is that there is enough cover around it that you have to wait for the deer to get real close and yes there is such a thing as too close. The buck is at around eight yards and looking right at me, I am wearing plaid but he doesn't see me, he relaxes and begins to move giving me a real nice angle except for the fact that he is so close. I come to full draw anchor pick my spot and release, it is then I hear the most gawd awful noise, things happen so fast that it's hard to figure out what you see or don't see. What I do know is that the deer is hit what looks to be in a good spot. I wait till just about dark get down find some blood and put a ribbon on the spot and go home.
