Nice work mamasboy, way to put up the first points for the team!

I haven't checked in for a while but here's what I've been up to

Thursdayevening I failed to connect with a mid 120 class buck. It was a 30 yard shot in an open field and I pushed the shot and missed him low. Very dissapointed in myself. It was a thrilling hunt though because I stalked him as he was feeding in an open field. I had come up over the crest of a ridge and seen him feeding seventy yards away. So, I backed down and tried to get in front of him. When I crested the ridge again I was still behind him because he was feeding away from me. Well, light was fading so I decided to get on my hands and knees and see if I could close the distance. He countinued to feed away and every time he looked up he looked in the opposite direction, so everything was going my way. I got to within 30 yards and decided it was now or never, took the shot and I fell to a heap as the deer bounded away untouched. I should not have missed the shot by no means. I must have had a case of the fever! Would have made for a great hunt!

Anyways I'll still be out five days a week so hit em hard boys! Good luck!
