I got her Saturday night in Coshocton, Ohio. Just before dark she came right to me from above. I hadn't seen anything all afternoon/evening and finally I heard her walking in the distance so I got my bow partially up and out she popped...about 20 yards from me. I was praying "Lord bring her to me, please bring her to me." All the while unable to hear anything other than the sound of my heart beating a million miles an hour!
So...she came right to me...like 10 yards from me...looking at me the whole time. I laughed a bit and was like "No...Lord...not RIGHT to me...turn her, please turn her, so I can get a shot!" So...He did...she turned broadside...walked behind a HUGE tree, allowing me to bring my bow up and then she stepped out, just the front part of her body, so I took aim and made the shot. She went down right away and ended up about 20 yards from where I shot her. Wow...what a rush. The entire scenario couldn't have been more perfect. Her timing, the placement of the big tree she walked behind, my shot. It all worked out perfectly and I couldn't be happier! It sure takes the pressure off for gun season...

That "rush" will keep you coming back for many more, and hope you get to experience that feeling many more times in your life. Nothing beats it! Congrats!
