I’m back in the stand for the first time since the disaster of last Friday night. Feels good to be back in the saddle!!! Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
The buck I wounded a few weeks ago in mid-west Missouri showed up on camera for the first time this morning. At least now I know for sure he didn’t die and you can see why I’m still kinda sick about it.
One year I'd like to tag out early and small game hunt. I've never seen so many squirrels. Sent from my Z719DL using Bowhunting.com Forums mobile app
I should also mention that I've been beating up public land on those meager 4 hunts. I love public hunting, but its been rough and I'm terrible about summer/early fall scouting. I definitely need to be better about that.
I need cernunnus to bless me with another opportunity so I can redeem myself. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
How dry the leaves are it took me an hour and a half to get up here quietly. All for 2 does and a fawn to be bedded 30 yards from my stand and see me. They didn’t blow, but took off like a scolded dog Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
You know guys I think a I figured my drawing issues out. I shot a few times before heading out and OMG it was tough. He said drawing may be tough till strings loosen up but it's gotten worse! I then thought ok I've lost a LOT of weight so maybe thats it. Though tossing around 50 # bags and 60 # Bales isn't an issue. Just now I'm examining bow for loose bolts and come across a clear sticker. 26.5/60. I think he put my draw,weight at 60 when he replaced my string and cables... at 30 I'd never attempted drawing 60#'s. No wonder all my muscles ache. Will have that checked this week on next rain day...at a differnet shop.
Coyote come through 10 minutes ago. Now a six point and fawn just trotted by me. Too small of a buck for me, but cool to see one on his feet Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums

Its Will Ferrell playing a character named Ashley Schaffer in the HBO series "East Bound and Down". Hilarious.
Another buck just came through. Bigger than the other but couldn’t tell how big. He come right up the other side of this saddle 60 yards Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
I hunt just outside of Jacksonville, still in it, between there and Concord. Scott's not a bad county either, had family living in Meredosia until last year. Have family all over that area, born in J'ville lived in Arenzville.
Thanks though prefer a bow guy to do it...either way the weight will need adjusting because I can't keep struggling like this. I can't adjust it, what can break ..will break with me and any equipment. This is why I learned how things work...though Just ask hubby,I'm jinxed. It's a real thing...lol
