1.5 or 2.5yo 8pt 12-14" wide 15yds broadside, close leg forward at 0840. got to full draw when i realized my arrow wasnt on the rest. shooting a nap 1000 rest, i lay my bow across the front of my Summit Viper..arrow lays on the riser...to shoot, i gotta put it on the rest. it all happened quick...i never did...broadhead caught the riser and popped off the string. somehow didnt hit the ground. gave me another shot at probably 30...but i wont shoot unless its top pin or i KNOW the distance for sure...so he got to walk. cant kick myself hard enough.

saw a gray fox 100-150yds away on the same ridge in the evening.

buddy killed a nice little 7pt 300-400yds away on the next farm at 9am.


i will be back to get him....just gunna give him time to FORGET about what he saw never spooked...didnt blow, lift the tail, stomp his foot...started working left, infront of me at ~30 but decided to turn around and leave...knew something was fishy...saved his life thats for sure.
