Yeah, had a beautiful 6 pointer standing 20 yds broadside. And the bow was at home!

Jim,
Don' t ya just love that!?[:@] I had that myself last year outside of Dover, except this was some sort of hound that was baying at full throttle the entire time.
after about 10 minutes of this dog running around in full voice I had to talk myself out of not making it disappear. []
Hope your season' s going better down there than mine is........new guys hunting in my area have it a mess.
Time to move on I think.

unfortunately i see everybody is having the same luck as myself [:' (]

@mikeE51848 ,
it' s a good thing that you didn' t have that bow with you , on page 42 of the hunting digest , it states under the regulations of archery season that it' s unlawful for a person hunting deer with a bow to possess a firearm of any kind

Yeah Matt I hate when that happens!This was one of 3 dogs that were running deer on the bow opener.The thing that really pee' s me off is that these animals are somebody' s pets.They looked healthy,well-fed,but didn' t have any tags or collars.I' m a dog owner myself and I' d really hate to whack them,but I can' t stand to see dogs running deer.
