Thanks Carp!!!!
Well,to tell you all the truth,I blew a shot on 130-140 class 8pt Sat.am.He was in a thicket on the wrong side of the wind.I had picked out two "windows"that I might be able to sneek an arrow though.He passed the first window,no good,the secound window he was turning away.The shot just nicked a small branch,and in doing so,just nicked the buck.As I watched my birthday present run across a big bottom area,two cut cornfields,an open pasture and finally disappear into another woodlot about 3/4 of mile away,I felt kind of sick.Blood trail,next to nothing,and then nothing,but I still tracked, looked and hoped,for the next 2 1/2 hours.
Thats bowhunting,and nobody said it would be easy....Bob
