Default Doe Harvested Today :)

My son and I got out today! The weather went from 11* yesterday, to a balmy 58* [8D]

I was loaded the 45cal Disc Elite with 120g BH209 and 200g Shockwave with Tan Sabot

Anyways, We set up a new ladder stand before daybreak this morning. I got to sit in it, and Tim went to another site about .25 miles away. Didn't see anything but birds and squirrels til about 10am. Had 2 does fly by at mach-3, about 80yards to my right. So I figured somebody was pushing them my way. I kept scanning that side, and about 10min later a mature doe came sneaking thru, walking very slowly. I waited til she broke into a small opening and took the shot. She stumbled and lurched about 10yards, and I lost sight of her from some big cotton wood trees. I didn't see her go past the big trees, so I figured she was down.

My son came back and we walked over ta see if we needed to do some tracking...Nope! She had wobbled around in a little 30yard circle and dropped 15yards from the initial shot.
Slightly quartering away shot, took one rib going in and missed them going out, turned everything to jello
