After hunting hard all season I got my first double down last night! Last Sunday I moved my lone wolf to a small pinch point that comes out into a newly sprouted clover patch. Hunted it for the first time last night after work. Thankfully I took the time to saw down some small trees before I climbed up into the stand yesterday afternoon. Around 4:15 I had a doe train filter out of the woods. 9 does and fawns were headed my way. I pulled my bow off the bow hanger and got the release set up. We have a pretty high doe ratio right now so I was prepared to fill all four doe tags if possible. I know some people knock the Ozonics machine but all those does were downwind from me and never spooked until I let the first arrow fly on a doe (on recovery found it to be a large nubber sadly). That button went 20 yards and piled up. The rest scattered but after five minutes started to come back. They were jumpy and kept trying to pick up my scent but thankfully could not. Eventually another very large and very mature doe came into my shooting lane and I let another arrow fly on her. She also only went 20 yards and piled up. The recoveries were short and so was the drag back to the truck. The food plots and habitat management are finally paying off. I am so excited to be making jerky all week. Everyone in my family is getting some jerky in their stockings this Christmas! I just want to say thank you to all of you that have given me advice on this site. I have no one in my family that bowhunts and had very few resources when I first picked up the bow. Over the past year this forum and catapulted my knowledge on bowhunting. THANK YOU.

Haha did she land on top of the other one?!? Good story, congrats! I also owe a lot to the knowledgable on this forum and now I try to give back.
Shot one in front of my stand and one behind my stand. They both ran east and landed about 100 feet away from each other.
