    Not having a good season. I messed up a shot on a doe tonight. Once again i shot high at 15 yrads and shot over her. I think i figured it out and will test it tomorrow before i even hunt again. My back has been messed up for a month. Think i cant bend at the waist properly. So im shooting high on all my deer this past month. I absolutely drill the bullseye in the yard, but I will test really close shots tomorrow from a stand. Have a feeling thats my problem. Just feeling dejected.

    Ended up seeing 6 does and fawns and one excited 4 pt.

    Today’s action was packed into such short amounts of time… but it might be a top 5 day I’ve had in the woods. That 9pt I almost got drawn on might be the biggest deer I’ve seen on the hoof while hunting. I wonder what deer was behind him… he looked very wide.

    The small 8pt that just hung out with me for like 2 hours was awesome.

    The chase of all chases was crazy. I still can’t believe that many deer were running around like that at one time.

    I left literally everything in the tree. Jacket, bibs, backpack, binos, rangefinder, bow. All of it. Walk in there in the morning early and see if I can sit it out for another 12 hours.
