Can't wait to see the lineup....hoping I get to spend time with Faith also...

Regardless though, good to have Hope and Faith to read about again.

Break her in for me stabow!

Rumor has it she may be coming north for the Ohio rut and fall turkey season after taking care if business in Bama, but I know there is alot Terry has to work through in coordinating these bows movements.

No matter what, watching the hunts with these bows is really a bright spot for me!

Hope Day 1

Ok I got her unpacked and home. I literally put three in the money at 20 with no adjustments. Then shot after shot where I needed. She likes 70-75 Doug Fir at 30.5 inches and an Ace Standard, 160 gr. Within an hour we were like peas and carrots.
 
*First three from 20 yards.


I had an hour and half till dark and decided to slip into some edge cover 1/4 mile from the house. I had some does there last night as I was glassing and a couple of bucks that needed a closer look. So with my ghille, my cheap stool and Hope I eased across the road and into some standing beans. I had a great wind and a place I wanted to get to. Time was short!

I no sooner sat down and a fat doe came into the field about 80 yards away. I decided to go for it and started slipping to her. Each time she put her head down to eat I moved along the field edge hugging the fencerow. I got caught by some brush sticking out in the field and waited. As I looked over the rise with my glass I saw two bucks feeding in the fence row ahead. With light getting short I backed out of the field. I circled to a field road that runs parallel to the field and made my way close to the fence row about where the bucks should have been.

I looked up to see a great 3 1/2 year old buck walking to me from the field. I looked to my right at 20 yards and there is a big ol scrape. I eased to my knees and off the road pronto. He came in facing me and started tearing the scrape up. I was kinda caught out in the open but my ghille is pretty cool...store bought but cool. As I was thinking of how to get an arrow to him or get him to turn I made a little crinkle in the leaves. Bad move...he stood and stared with me on two bad knees for a long, long time. I just didn't make eye contact. He never spooked and he never gave me an ethical shot. Quartering to was the best I had and I elected to pass. At dark he eased back to the field and I took the long way home to not spook all the deer in the field.

So, how's that for a first night with Hope? My God if they all go that way I will have a dump truck full of memories and some dead critters. Stay tuned...this is gonna be a fun month!
 
*Beautiful.
 
*Checkering and riser gorgeous

 
*Braced at 7 1/8.
