Way to go!

 

Blooooooood pic in the snow! I haven't hunted in snow yet this year. Last year we had snow the last weekend of Oct.

Congratulations.

 

I was checked out. I am fine other than lingering soreness and tightness.

 

She came with 2 others, walked to my tree and spooked but tried to circle me. One ran off on the shot and one stuck around to see what happened, I needed 10 yards and I’ve gotten curios Karen as well.
Now to decide to dress her and go home, or let her lay and sit another hour or two. It’s 30 out so no rush.

 

Heck yeah.

Try to get the daily double.

 

Congrats

 

Congrats!

 

I don’t have a good explanation of this shot, either I suck or she took a big step, either way it buried in her pelvis and she didn’t make it 30 yards. Had a little luck this morning

 

Congrats on the doe!
I haven't been hunting since before TG. We've had some sad news with 3 sudden deaths of people we know . Not covid related . Then we we got A. J. Home. He is a good boy but needs lots of training. He has "excitable" glitches. Is a major " mouther" and I had to contact Kong when two 18.00 XL toys arrived and he broke one in an hour and one in 5 mins. He is Doing great in training and 2 mile walks each day help to tire him out. He flushes morning doves ever day less than 5 ft away without any reaction. Great! He jumped a doe 20 yrds away and tugged a little but did well with ignor!. Though there he stood displaying one of the best points I've ever seen. LOL he pointed on that doe 3 x's and if he could have straighten the slight curl of his tail , he'd look as good as any setter I've seen. He found that doe trail readily. I'm actually concidering attempting tracking training with him. He is also a mad mouser which makes our woods walk a bit more challenging . He's a perfect road walker displaying heel very well on a loose lead.

I plan on going out to hunt a few more times this week, the shooting here has all but stopped and most camps are empty.

 

Kidney/renal artery? Obviously never aim for it but it's a deadly shot. Something like 35 years ago I was a kid sitting with my old man and he skewered a small buck through both kidneys, he pinwheeled around 5-6 times spraying blood all over the place and flipped over on his back deader than heck. Looked like a scene out of a chainsaw massacre movie. There was blood 10' up on nearby tree trunks.

 

As I was gutting her, I went through the scenario, she had her left side to me, just had to of reacted to the shot and barely got out of the way. She’s shot on her right side, talk about a luck shot, blood was all over, took some wiggling to get the arrow out of her pelvis.

 

I shot a doe 5 or so years ago just below your hit. I forgot to sand the knock on one of my hunting arrows and at the shot the knock stayed on my string. Sending the shot WAY left. I sliced that artery and she went a mere twenty yards and tipped over. My stomach flipped at the hit and a second later I was pleasantly surprised. Congrats...

 

Congrats!
