A good evening in Wisconsin

I had a nice hunt after work tonight. There is a spot that is usually productive with a north wind this time of year at my parents cabin. I was able to get there, climb the hill, and get settled in by 4:00. I did bump 2 deer (does I think) on my way in and hoped they didn't alarm any others that may be in the area. It was pretty windy and at 5:10 I heard the crunch of leaves to my left, it was a basket racked 8 pointer. I haven't been seeing a lot of deer this year and decided I would take the first deer that presented a good shot opportunity. He did just that and I made a good shot at about 8 yards or so. I followed his run and climbed down after a bit to look for blood. As it turned out he didn't bleed externally but I was able to follow his path to where I last saw him and there he lay.
To make it extra special I got him with a zebrawood longbow I made and gutted him with a knife that I made with a piece of bubinga that was left over from a bow that I made for my wife. What a great feeling!

Its not the size of the animal you hunt that matters. Its how you hunt the animal.

Congratulations Jay! That's extra special to take a deer with your own homemade equipment. We'll work on getting your doe tag filled this weekend.
