Dec 11 and I missed a very nice 8 pt buck at 13 yards from a ground blind in a snowstorm near dark.  I hit a twig in the blind with the arrow.

last shot at an animal was a squirrel at 25 steps. I'm pretty sure he will never be back in the county cause you couldn't have fit a piece of paper between my arrow and his head  :)

I think it was in late November last year, or early December. I missed a smallish pig.

Dec 30 2009 missed a decent buck shot over him. I switched back to a recurve after shooting a longbow for several years. Unfortunately I shot high on 2 other deer throughout the season. I practiced a lot with the recurve but still shot high when the time game to close the deal.

My last shot was the bigger one on the left yesterday afternoon. Running about 8 yards away, through the back leg. The other bunny was with a judo that went through the back and leg and up into the vitals at 15 yards in a briar den.

I was with 4 other trad friends. We took turns kicking brush piles and used a Beagle for awhile too.

My last shot was at a small buck that came in to about 12 yards. Thankfully, I connected and have been eating venison ever since!

Last Wednesday, 2/10/10.  I was out practicing, and noticed this guy about 15 ft. up a tree sitting on a limb.  There were some houses in the background, so I knew I couldn't come to full draw.  I put a big bend in my bow arm, drew to anchor(about half draw), and drilled him with a field point.
