hey guys, braved the cold yesterday and scored on a year and a half old doe, she isnt a monster but she is my first deer with the bow during gun season.
 
This particular doe was starting to become trouble as i had missed her during the bow season and now every time she came in she would look rite into the tree and stare me down. although she didn't spook she knew there was something that didn't belong in that tree so she would always turn around and never give me a shot, we had done this same dance three or four times since the day i shot over her back, only this time i passed the test enough that she decided to take the 3 more steps i needed her to take.

Way to go and great persistence.

Great job Tim. I’m dealing with the same thing. I have to change my strategies to deal with this doe in my area. They learn so fast.

Great job Tim ! She looks like a real nice deer. I shot my first trad deer in gun season quite a few years ago. In the morning when I showed up with my bow all of the other guys made fun of me. They were all hunting with guns from tree stands. I ground hunted and was the only one to take a deer. Nobody has ever said anything about bow hunting in gun season to me again.

I could see you pulling that off Bob    

Bunny's soon for me after this weekend, I'm not as worried about the smoke poles as I am the gun hunters. I have a batch of Bunny arrows just waiting to go    and three beagles that wont quit no matter what.

[J.Williams]

Man,I wish I lived closer to you Jim...would like to do some bunny hunting.You gonna get out for deer with the bow?I'm thinking of taking a sickday this week and give it one last try.

[Stone Knife]

I'm done with deer, I'm in Bunny mode now. If you lived closer than you could be in trouble with your wife too, you would be hunting with me all the time, and that's all the time  

[Cyclic-Rivers]

awesome fellas. I too cant resist looking closer at the briers for bunners They are looking better than the deer sign daily.

[Wapiti Chaser]

[longrifle]

Well, the season is winding down, so today I thought I would pull a tree seat I had left in the woods. Grabbed the old Mahaska longbow, put on the snow camo and took a walk for a few hours.Cold and windy and not much activity in the woods.Some old tracks from different critters but no game seen. It has been 4 weeks since I have seen a deer. Still nice to wander around for a bit. Will go out again with a friend on Sunday and see what happens!
