Default Doe down in south jersey

Well i was sitting in my seat at about 4:20 when this doe and 2 yearlings came in with her. She took about 40 minutes to finally step into one of my shooting lanes it felt like forever. When she finally did i made it count. Shot was a little high but she was so close that the angle saved me. She dressed out at about 100lbs. This is my first "clean" kill with my bow and only my 2nd deer with a bow. I was shooting a thunderhead 100 and it did the job she piled up only 30 yards from my seat

congrats ,

Where in South Jersey?
I am from Galloway Township. ( Atlantic County )
I took bow up again after not bow hunting for 8 years.
I also took my first deer with a bow this year.
I am now up five, no bait, and have aboutthree groups of 8-10 does cruiseing around.
All mine have been in the 80-90 lbs range.
I took my 5th one yesterday morning on bow permit.
I wasn't in the seat for 5 minutes and she walked right in and stopped 15 yards away.
I waited 30 minutes to see if anything was following her, but see was a loner.
Just stayed right there eating acorns.
I am finished with does and waiting only for bucks now.
With all of these does I have running around and with the rut about to bust, it maybe interesting.
I am shooting Rage two blades and they are awsome.
Major holes and blood.
This was one from a couple of weekends ago.
My trail camera took this shot.

Congradulations on your doeBowman. I've never hunted Cape May County, but certainly know of your neighbor's(Salem County)repution for large bucks. Good luckdown there.
