RE: this bow hunting stuff is no walk in the park.
Pre-scouting...hope you did that...if not then better luck next year...Archery Hunting for me starts in about June and the season does not open up till the end of August. I scout a lot of different areas so I can bounce around when the Animals have moved. Look for rubs, scrapes, droppings and fresh trails that are being used. I forgot: GOOD LUCK to you
