I am pretty much a newbie too bowhunting with this only being my second season. Ive hunted whitetails for years with a rifle though but I got bored and figured I needed a challenge and bowhunting is definately a challenge.

Well today was opener and I decided too hunt out of a ground blind for the first time. Well, this morning no luck, the weather conditions werent exactly cooperative. Well tonight it was nicer and I decided too go out for the eveing rush. Well, I went out about 5:30 because everynight Ive been seeing deer at my inlaws place about 6:45-7:30. Well, I positioned the blind in a spot well covered with shooting lanes on my left and my right. My blind is a three sided ameristep outhouse blind. Well, just like clock work out came a buck, a small one but descent one right too my left. Well, he moved back and forth and finally about 20 minutes later was right in my site about ten feet in front of me. I was shaking too death and the arrow fell off my rest, but too my surprise he looked up puzzled and did nothing. Well, he moved back and forth again moving about 15-20 ft in front of me broadside and I cut loose. Thud, what the heck I said, how did I miss. Well being I never shot out of a blind before, I looked out the window and thought I was clear because my sight was clear but as we all know the arrow sits 2-3 inches below and I shot through the blind deflecting my shot. Dang, how could of I been so stupid. Well too make a long story short, Ive shot a million times practicing all summer long but didnt practice out of the blind. Rookie mistake. Dang, I am pissed, but maybe next time. Will he ever come back too that spot again?
