Crazy day.
« on: December 11, 2012, 12:47:00 AM »
Got out at first light. Well sort of . Get in the almonds about 8:00. Sneek in the ditch ,and start off with some rabbit stuff. Nothing do some rat screams and get that feeling look behind me and theres two giving me the stare down at 40 yards.Make eye contack and they warp out of there.Nothing on number two. Third stand young peaches. Get to the down wind side of the orchard. Set the rat out about 20 yards in front of me. Do some rabbit stuff for maybe five minutes and my call stops working. While Im taking it aprt to clean it A big one blows past me and heads to the decoy. He grabs it and he's running off with it !. He's running with it and dragging the stake with it, looks like he was trying to out run the stake that was chassing him. He drops after 60 yards or so.
 Nothing on the next two stands. Set up buy some persemons and pomagranet trees. Peeker miss one about two weeks ago here. With a rifle! .  Started with the rabbit stuff. right away one comes in right in front of me, never slowed down and never was close for a shot. Was sneeking into some adult peaches and I see movement out about 70 yards. Get down and take a good look. another one taking a nap. He's in the center.
   
Closer
 
Get in a better angle for the shot. Telling my self easy 20 yard shot. pick a spot. Just beind the head should get the body also.
 
You can hop but you can't hide.
If it was not for rabbits I would never get a buck.

Start to draw and it looks up at me. We sit there staring at each other for what seems like days. It then gets up and walks away. Gets out to maybe fivety yards sits and scratces.    Game on.  Did some  sqeeks . it turns and looks my way.
 He gets in the next row and stands there. two more  sqeeks and he's walking back.  Gets to fiveteen yards and starts scratching again,tilts his head twords the side he's scratching. The arrow is on its way. His backend goes down  and he falls over backwards gets up and tries to run but it looks like he's tangled up with the arrow. Drops for good.  Another big old male.  First one with this short bow. Been playing with it I can shoot this thing while sitting up aganst a tree. Think i found a good calling stick

Congrats yet again!

I can see how he got "tangled up" in the arrow. Great stalking and shooting.

Like the looks of your set up. Thanks for getting in the last picture too.....now I know what a coyote killer looks like!

Always appreciate you sharing and enjoy your Christmas trip!

Nice shooting,congrats  :thumbsup:
An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

Amazing stuff!  I don't know how you do it!  Do you mind if I ask how many you have taken with a bow?
