New Years Eve Success!
« on: January 01, 2013, 02:27:00 PM »
Ended 2012 with a beautifull evening in the woods, on the ground....
   
Had a cute, little visitor to brighten the day:
 
 
Finally a lone little fella came by. Tried to get his picture, but ended up being too difficult in the cold & snow, so just decided to stick with the bow and try to add meat to the freezer.    This Usually means good things:
 
 
Was a little worried as heavy snow picked up right before the shot and the arrow hit a little farther back than I intended. However, after a 1/2 hour wait, I slowly followed the steady red droplets wondering it I should have waited.......however, after about 80 yds, or so, I came upon this welcome sight:

 
My first archery deer in deep snow, and it was an awesome way to end the year!
