Well, I have been hunting longbow all season so far. And have seen alot of animals but none within 18 yards and with the swing, I can shoot out of my climber. All were 25-30 yards. Even seen a few bucks. Typical story, the stand was not in the right position, just a tad too dark to see, typical hunting crap.
So our muzzleloading season started on Thursday. I have hunted for 3 days staight, and I have seen so many doe its crazy, and guess what? All have came within 15 yards wide open trad shots, but here I am with a smokepole.
I am thinking God is telling me this year, this is what you are getting, shoot it. I usually always see 1 buck for ever 4 doe. But on this new property, I see 30 doe and no bucks.
So we will see if murphy is still at it in the next few weeks with bow in hand again. I hate to pound does with prerut starting.
BC, 15 yards with a Muzzloader and you didn't shoot, how close do you need them



I dream of sending a patched round ball from the Flinter thru a deer......
