Hey guys
I've been out allot "3-4 times a week", shot a good buck on the 13th of sept, decoyed him in. Came nose to nose with the decoy, nice 150 class 4 pointer. Never new I was there kneeling in the brush, put it behind his shouder on a quartering away shot and the arrow hit right where I wanted it "or so I thought". He ran 60 yds into heavy brush and crashed into a fence.
I left him lay there for a couple hours, came back and he was gone. Blood every where, arrow looked great, and he got into a crp field. I've looked a couple days. I'm sure he's dead as I've never seen him again on camera or glassing. Haven't lost a deer in a long time and it sucks!
Shot a doe last week, she only made it 35 yards. Headed to Iowa in two weeks, and I'm going to be picky. Then my son and I are going up to Manitoba to hunt with friends for a week, that will be a fun time!!
Good luck guys and have a fun and safe fall!!!
