RE: Mike Bell...Missed the eight pointer tonight
<font size=5>LOL...</font id=size5> with FirstBow. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> You a funny man Firstbow.
I missed and it was a bonehead mistake.I was watching a six pointer feed near me for about 7 mins. I heard a twig pop and there he was about 8 yards on my left feeding directly at me. I finaly got to stand up, went to go to full draw and the arrow fell off the string to the ground. The deer never lifted his head off the acorns.
But wait, could there be more?
Of coarse!
Man I was shaking like a leaf on a windy day. I finaly got another arrow out of the quiver and started to noch it and couldn't stop shaking. FINALY got it noched, bow up, pulled back, anchored, waiting for the deer to turn broad sided, he turns to the left, I got him...........NOT.
I shot over his back. Missed judged the distance. 15 steps, not 20.
I'm still learning to bow hunt. Been at 5 years now and am learning it all on my own. Just a little wiser now FirstBow. Still get buck fever after 25 years of deer hunting.
Don't forget about the six pointer I was worried about busting me the whole time. My wife laughed at this eposode also.
Whats your last mistake FirstBow?
