I've decided that over Christmas / New Year's (the rut) I will primarily be bowhunting. Since it will
be 2 weeks after the birth, I should be able to get some quality hunts in.
A couple reasons for sticking with the string:
(1) the ##%* challenge and my own goals.
(2) I'm done with does with my rifle, but will be thrilled to take one with my bow.
(3) Got some spots in the woods where rifle range is only 75 yards or so anyway.
Although I admit it will be real tough if a big one goes by at 40 + yards and I have a bow in my hand.
We have 3 different 8's and that 10 in the area on cam and none have fallen yet!
Will, congrats on the upcoming birth of your child! I hope all goes well.
If and when you can find time to get out during the rut sounds very promising for you. Best of luck man, I am happy to hear that you're going to get after them with the bow and arrow!
Good luck with those 8's and that 10!
