Default RE: post your first bow kill story...

Last night First night out for me. My buddy hung a stand on my property a couple nights ago and i thought i would give it a try tonight see how much activity is going on for him cause he is a much better hunter then me and i have never even harvested a deer.

Went out at about 5:30 and didnt see any activity besides turkeys and a squirell that came up my tree. About 7:15 i spot 2 nice does about 50 yds to my left and the shakes already began. I was just gonna pass on them cause i know ive seen much bigger does on my property(11 year old was taken last year and was huge!!)

They were walking on my dirtbike trail just looking for acorns and one doe turned directly at me and started walking my way!!....This is when i decided well ive never shot a deer before lets make this one count.

She was actually being blocked by a branch cause she was to close compared to my lane. I was squatting pulled back...Didnt hear me so im good... Gave her a quick baaa... and thump at 18 yds was a perfect shot.. After some hard tracking she never showed a blood trai.. i still ended up getting lucky andl i found her 40yd from my stand......
