of course i practiced... thats in fact why i haven't had time over the summer because i am on our college's archery team here in pennsylvania... you can look us up at www.pct.edu/athletics.. for the scouting business my dad has been out around his treestands and looked over our ground and found signs and he was the one that told me to go and try to get in that treestand and if it was broke down i should just walk around and see what i can find for the week ahead...
anyways... Yeah I hit behind the ribs and high enough that i might of actually overshot the spine.. my dad says that if i hit that high then the only thing that was ruptured was just the fat and hopefully he said that the buck didn't know what hit him and we'll be coming back into our ground again... thanks for the feedbacks and keep them coming.. i'm going out tonight again this time in a climbing tree stand to try another area out
