    Well I finally sealed the deal last night. I was hunting a stand along a creek between thick bedding and a HUGE alfalfa field. At about 5:00, 5 does went by my stand and into the field. Then at 5:30 I used the ol' estrous can call, and shortly thereafter I heard something crossing the creek in my direction. It came up onto the bank and was walking on the same trail the does were on. He was 23 yards away when the arrow flew. Had a complete pass through, going through both lungs. This sure is a better feeling than hitting the last deer high and never finding him! It's no giant, but he is only my second deer with a bow, so I'm pretty happy with it.
