Wow that's a pretty green summer looking picture for a fall bow kill.. I am southern Ohio and things are pretty brown yellow and orange falling.. Weird how its so different just a couple states away.
Couple of you had asked about the story behind my sons deer. A cold front had moved in here in KY. it was the first front of the year. My son loves to trap beavers and yotes and he had been getting ready for it, he had told me he was going to wait till rifle season to deer hunt. He still shot his bow a couple times a week and when he seen the cold front was coming he ask if he could hunt. Course I said yes, so the morning of Sept. 14th we headed to the stands before daylite. I let him set in the stand I was going to hunt out of which was next to a corn field, I took a stand more next to a ditch in the woods. We have game photos of this deer and had been thinking if I want to shoot him or pass this year. As we got ready to break off he ask if he seen this deer could he shot it, there was no way I was going to say no to him. I told him to shot what ever he wanted the was 6 points or bigger, little before 8 am he text me to call him and when I did he was pumped and told me he thought he had shot a 10 pointer we had photos of. I ask where he hit it and he told me the shoulder so I congrated him and ask him to stay in his stand and give the buck some time that I would be there in an hour or so. I wanted to make sure and give the buck time to lay down so I met him at 10 am and he was all smiles and still pumped. We walked over to here he had shot the deer no blood we found part of his arrow about 30 yard for where he had shot it and then spots of blood here and there. It appeared the deer was on a trail so I had him walk it, about 55 to 60 yards from his stand we found the deer in the high weeds. He was one happy 15 year old and is now hooked on bowhunting. He has already picked a spot on his wall here he wants to put it.
