Default I HATE MY GUTS!

here's a cautionary tale for my fellow bowhunters....

I've been in the woods everyday so far this season. saw a few does , a spike, a big one i couldnt count and a four pointer. no good shots, so i'm patient.

this morning, around 9am i hear a grunt and here comes a nice six toward my stand. turns broadside at 30 yards, chip shot... i pull the trigger and watch my arrow sail about 2 feet to the left of his chest!!!

deer spooks, and i am ready to puke. on my way out i shoot a stump at 30 yards......yep about 2 feet left!!!

went to the range real quick and sure enough, my sights are totally off. must have slammed it, jarred it, something. ARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHH!!!!!!

With the range being 24 hours, and 10 minutes from my house, i am mad at myself for not checking the bow DURING the season .

So....Check your sights periodically or be a distraught , forlorn loooooser like me!
