    Well, late season hunting in Michigan sure is tough, there has been a lot of activity though, for this time of year. I decided to stick close to home and just take it easy without breaking my back.

    The action happened so fast all I had time to do was draw my bow and shoot point blank from a distance of less than 10 feet. I had to remind myself to stay calm, pick a spot, and follow through. I'm pretty sure I made a good hit, but decided to back out and track it in the morning.

    Another sleepless night...

    Lol- Seeing how SH is from Michigan, I am guessing shooting a deer is not a legal action right now?:confused:

    Hopefully a yote, but possibly a bunny.

    Well, going back out this morning I am possibly coming to the conclusion that I missed.

    Not quite sure, as I have half an arrow but no blood. I am not all that worried though, but I'll leave the guessing to you guys as to what I shot.:D But I can tell you that it wasn't a bunny, deer, or a yote.
