Well I'm heading in the woods again tomorrow for what unfortunately will be my last day of the season. I've logged more days this year in the woods then I ever have in my dozen or so years of hunting. If I had to guess, I bet I put in a good 30+ days or 1/2 days in the woods this year. This was my first year bow hunting and I was lucky enough to get a small buck opening day of bow season but other than that .... NADA. After having some initial problems sighting in my Black Diamond, with the forums help, I got back on track and have been focusing on getting one with my smokepole.Other than sighting it in, I didn't take my308 off the rack this year at all. This is my 4th season with my Black Diamond and have yet to take a shot at a deer with it. Hopefully tomorrow is the day! I love shooting my Black Diamond and can't wait to have the opportunity to harvest a deer with it. I actually had a nice doe sneak up behind my setup opening day of BP 35 yards from me, however, never had a good shot. My heart was beating so fast unlike anything I have ever experienced with a bow or rifle. I have never been patient enough to stay in my stand all day, however, tomorrow hopefully will be the first time I do so. I think I might have patterned the deer movement on the property I hunt and hopefully it holds true tomorrow! I do have another week of season left here in Virginia, however, I've pushed it with the Mrs. and know when to stop.
