I'm mainly a bowhunter, but am always looking for ways to stretch my hunting season. I've always wanted to havest a deer with a summer cape, and was finally able to. I decided to shoot a doe to help the buck/doe ratio. Deer was harvested on the 1st week of September '05(Opening Weekend).. It's my 1st M/L Deer. The Deer had 1/2 of the body in short (3/8") hair, and the other 1/2 with long (1 1/2") hair. Was able to get 67 lbs of meat from the big old doe. I am using a CVA Optima Pro, which shoots like a dream!
