Well tonight didn’t go as planned. Had a nice 10 point step out about 6:30pm. Walked fast across the field. I got the camera and go pro on, went up and over my tree saddle bridge as he was to my right, and ranged him at 45 yards. He stopped on his own. I had time but rushed the shot. Hit him high and back and little. Arrow stayed in him as he ran off. Got down and found 1 drop of blood. He unfortunately crossed the property line. Got the number and called but no answer. Gonna try again in the morning. This is him... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Oh man! Good luck. I hope they give you permission in the morning. I hit a buck like that a few years ago. He ran about 150 yards an fell over dead. Cut a main artery. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Goodluck man! I also hit one like that a few years ago. Got an atery and he was done within 100. Sent from my LML212VL using Bowhunting.com Forums mobile app

For the past couple days i've've been sequestered in the garage working on a car that I rebuilt the engine for. Today I'm waiting for the last part to arrive with the UPS truck which comes in the early afternoon. So this morning I'm heading out to my Hamilton county property in search of the illusive doe. I haven't been there in about a week so I'm hoping that with a good wind today I've let it cool down a bit and that I'll see something worth shooting in range. Heading out now, should be in the stand by 5:45ish. Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk
So I drove from Mankato Minn, to Cedar Rapids wed night, that’s means tonight I will have a bow in my hand. Sent from my iPad using Bowhunting .com Forums
Back in the tree this morning. I’ve got my bow and pumpkin head has his .243. Opening day of youth rifle. So far no movement. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Got a better shot of the big 7 point. That is now a big 9 point. Then a few other bucks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Me too! Glad we passed him last year. He’s the number one target for sure. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Tracked the buck 200 some yards. Decent blood actually. But I lost it. Got a buddy with a tracking dog and going in now to try and find the buck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
6 out of the 11 of us have knocked a doe down. That's pretty dang good this early in the contest. Now we need to start laying some bucks down.
Not Travis but if I go and its supposed to rain a take a water resistant JVC camera with me vice my main camera. I think I got it off e-Bay for like 150 or so. HD and not top quality but least I don't toast my bigger cam.
