I'll admit I missed a 5 pt'r in the A.M. I did not notice some brushy growth that the arrow clipped. Ended up sending the arrow right in between the little guy's legs. I'm confident he did not know where the arrow came from, as he merely stepped back and then continued on his way.

I did not even get a chance to get my arrow back until later in the day...we had one hell of a thunderstorm come in around 9am, and I could have walked on water I was moving so fast back to the truck. Even had the luxury of walking across a nice expanisve cut corn field...with lightning hitting only a a couple fields away.

Went back out at 2:30, and while getting my jacket on in the truck, I saw a lone deer come out of the woodlot entrance where my stand is. Most likely was the same small buck. The rest of the evening entailed surfing in the tree stand from the 30mph winds.

I'll get out Monday morning again.

PS...later found arrow, looks in good shape, even the broadhead looks like it wasn't damaged at all (montec g5). At least it was a clean miss.

And congrats on the doe BSH!
