    Was able to finally make it all come together tonight. I have had opportunity in the past, blown shots, etc. But tonight it all went according to plan.

    Thanks Guys! Like I said it all came together perfect. 22yds away, head down quartering away other does behind brush. I climbed a new tree and had a branch over my left shoulder so I had to squat to make sure my bow was under it. But I planned for that and took some practice draws in that direction, so I was completely comfortable when time came that I could make the shot. Also glad I got it done, as I'm running out of days this season with my second daughter due end of November and the wrestling season starting in just over 2 weeks.

    Nice job. Much better shot than my first deer. I spined it and dropped my follow up arrow from the tree stand trying to nock it. Had to call my buddy over to finish the job but luckily I had hit an artery and she bled out before he got there.
