Default Old Michigan Doe Down

Sent a Grim Reaper through her lungs Friday night, night before "artillary season". Pretty impressed with these Grim Reapers! I had my doubts about them when i bought them but man do they make a hole! She only went 40 yards and piled up. Even tho she doesn't look big, she's 3.5 years old.

Here's the story. I was sittin in my stand overlooking my new food plot and a button buck and nice 8 come in. The 8 was decent size so i decide i am gunna take him. I lift up my bow and his head comes up and looks right at me. I knew i was busted. he eats for a sec, lifts up his head and looks at me again. He then starts quartering away and i get to half draw and he looks back, see's me drawing and books it! I was so mad after that. First deer i drew on all season and he has to bust me.

Fifteen minutes later i hear grunting a a doe comes running into the food plot. She starts eatin while i look for the buck that was chasing her. I don't see nothing and the doe gets out to 20 yards. then 25....then 30. I decide i'm gunna take her. Draw back, and let it rip. She runs and the buck chases after her. Turns out he was a small 6. I hear a crashed just outta my sight and know she's down. Go back, look at my arrow and there she is laying. Couldn't be happier!
