Nice bucks Buckeye and VS --- CONGRATS!! Great to hear you guys scored!

I've been out of pocket recently, haven't been on in awhile, so here is an update of my bowhunting the last few weeks.

Bow trip to Missouri went well -- lots of bucks, matter of fact we saw more bucks than does. Saw 2 shooters, but just not in bow range. One was an absolute stud. Saw lots of young bucks within shooting range, but just not the shooter. The thing that hurt was that most of the crops were still up while we were there and the weather was very rainy.

Back to WI...I got a shot at a decent 8 pt two weeks ago. He was cruising a field edge...came in directly at me, went right under my tree, and I didn't have a shot until he was behind me. I think the limb of my bow hit a tree limb. on the shot.. Hunters worst nightmare...I nicked the buck and never found it. I've done this one other time several years ago on a doe...just a horrible feeling. I'm back out this afternoon and tomorrow for my final hunts before gun season opens in WI next weekend, so I'm hoping to get lucky.

Good luck all!
