    Little 6 came out of nowhere and was bounding around. Came right underneath me and worked his way upwind into the bedding area. I could smell him.

    Now I just need his great grand pappy to do that.

    Not hunting this morning to get my bow lined out. Shot a buck yesterday morning but didn’t have any sig to update. Same result as the big 6 on Monday but this time I could tell I only got about 8” of pen. Waited 3 hours, packed up, got down, slowly tracked, blood started. Picking up around 2pm as he crossed a property line. Got permission, the property owner hunts quite a bit and manages the property for deer.

    We’re talking, shooting the ****, looking for blood for about 45 mins, when he says “ look there he is!” A doe ran up with in about 40 yards of us. We stood and talked more. Walked around a little. After about 10 mins, he said “if you wanna nock one and take her go ahead”.

    I didn’t really have a shot so we stood and talked some more. Finally, he said see how close you can get by putting that walnut between you and her. So I nocked one, proceeded to use the dead space between me and the walnut. She spooked as expected, but turned right into my shooting lane. I shot for 35 but she was more like 30.

    Hit a little high, STILL didn’t get pass through. The arrow went in about 8” and broke off. She went 40 yards and crashed but I gotta figure out why my bow won’t shoot arrows through rib cages.

    Went all tactical sloth, slow is steady and steady is fast and managed to slip into my ground blind. Nothing moving as of yet.

    Im sure your guys heads feel a lot better than mine. 31 years old and still haven’t learned my lesson. Someday I will learn.

    Me and a buddy went $40 into a box and got this. Hope my luck continues to tonight.

    Just shot a buck. Not to big

    I didn't drink enough water yesterday, so now I have a headache. The wind is blowing in a bad direction and there is not much sign here, but I've shot a buck out of this stand the past 2 years. Deer can ge real close and come from anywhere.
    All of a sudden there is a real nice buck to my right. I'm waiting for him to get in an opening, but he smells me and bolts. I turn around and there is a smaller buck, but nice. I shot him at 7 yards! Waiting a bit before getting down. Looked like a good shot, but watched him run 80 yards before losing sight.

    Also, my buddy shot a buck last night and recovered it this morning - he's with me in Wisconsin

    Also, my brother texted me 10 minutes before I shot that he had shot a buck!

    You know I'll be posting blood pics when I get down.
