Default A special 8 point

Hey guys, I just got the call from one of my hunting buddies....he got an 8 point with the bow about 6:00 tonight. This is a special buck for himbecause he is blind in his right eye. He uses a standard sight without a peep and aims to the one side to offset for his sight problem. It's hard enough to get a buck let alone not being able to see our of one of your eyes. I'll have pictures tomorrow! I'm going to camp tomorrow morning and Inow I'm really going to have problems sleeping.

Wow, thats great. Tell him I said good job. He sounds like a reg. Dan Fitzgerald who is also blind in his right eye, and uses his left eye to sight up.

x-bows are still illegal in NY. He tried swithcing to lefty but....you know what they say about teaching old dogs new tricks. His "8" point is really a 6. 4x2. I'll post a picture later. I spent all day Friday and Saturday hunting and didn't see a thing. [:@]
