Yep I came home empty handed again this year. I won't lie though, it is mostly my fault. Even though this was an extremely poor hunting season for East Tx, I could have killed a deer. I have just become very picky, trying to kill mature deer only. Actually I started hunting exclusivly with my bow 3 yrs ago.........and let see I haven't killed a deer in 3 yrs. Yep that is 0-3.lol
I shouldn't gripe, I have passed some nice deer but I know there are some big boys out there and I'm trying to pass on anything under about 130 P&Y. I am trying to practice QDM on our place and letting the little bucks walk is part of it, even if I come home empty handed. I was wanting to kill a couple does with my bow this yr but I couldn't even get one close enough.(that is until 2 days after doe season, when I couldn't shoot her!)<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> Oh well, there is always next yr!
