The fact that folks have the ability to shoot 8 deer legally maybe why many of us don't see any!! If a person shot half that amount with bow or gun puts a real dent in the population!   :dunno:   Just say'n
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

I'm sworn to secrecy, some fellow stickbow enthusiast has quite a tale to tell.

Thank you for posting the picture. Today has been a real roller coaster ride for me and right now I'm at the bottom. This morning I had a real nice buck in and I thought my shot was good but he must have turned a little and been quartering toward me . The arrow passed through and the deer tucked his tail and bolted downhill towards the creek. I got down and picked up the arrow and noticed almost no blood on the ground, the arrow was covered in blood but did have some intestine matter on it so I decided to give him some time. I gathered all of my stuff and was standing at the base of my treestand when I heard a branch brake so I turned around and this buck was coming right at me. I took my phone out and started taking pictures and he kept coming , at three yards I decided that was close enough and moved so he would see me. He just bounded a few steps and looked at me then snorted and went down the hill. I gave the one I hit four hours and went back and followed running tracks and a little blood down the hill to the creek where he started to walk and I lost blood. I have a friend who is a licensed tracker with dogs and he is coming in the morning to help me look. A couple of people have prayed along with me, we will see what the morning brings.

Yep that sounds about right, I hit one a few years ago in one lung exited out low in the gut. The intestines plugged the hole, almost no blood and the buck went about 300 yards and died.

Thanks for all of encouragement I'm just sitting by the wood stove with a cup of coffee waiting for the Deer Search dog watching minutes tick off on the clock . Not sure if it's good or bad but inever heard the coyotes last night.

Know the feeling-- good luck! For my part I am seeing all kinds of deer this year, and the chasing started Friday AM here with a sighting of a 10-pointer I've not seen before "in these parts". My confidence is poor due to shoulder weakness post surgery but just being out there and seeing it is a wonder.
