When you don't have trees what's a guy suppose to do ?? LOL

It is flustrating, maddening and nerve racking at times but there is no other thrill like it when it comes to bowhunting deer.

You have a doe at 10 yards standing broadside begging to die... a button buck standing 2 yards facing you and peeking around you to see what is going on behind you without a clue... yep not a clue... you can't move to draw back. Maddening but at the same time... it is so hard not to giggle at the fawn.

You have a doe at 6 yards in front of you... a doe standing right behind you... You slowly pull back waiting for the latter to wreck it all. Now that is a heart pounding moment.

Biggest buck of your life is heading right at you. At the last 15 or so yards he moves out a bit. No shot at 10 yards. Your plan was for him to come by at 20 yards. Your heart is in your throat. At 12 yards he stops and you find a hole in the weeds to put your arrow though.

Coyote, fox, skunks, a seriously pissed off badger all under 5 yards.

wind swirls and a doe catches a brief whiff of you. Wind goes back the right way. She comes in to investigate. She sticks her head in your little shooting lane in the weed and then walks in. Her out stretch head is a mere foot away from your's as she is trying to get another whiff of the blob sitting there. She takes a small step forward. Her nose is 6 inches away from your's when you say BOO.

Maddening but oh what a rush/blast !!
