Got in stand this morningabout 5:30 on gamelands in Columbia County. Uneventful til about 8:15, while i'm trying to blowsmoke rings with my breathi happened to turn around and see movement 50 yards behind me. Itturned out being a horse of a deer, i'm almost positive i saw some white above its head but nothing massive. It didnt stick aroundlong enough for me to get agood look.I was kinda mad that I let that one get by me but i was also happy that I even saw a deer.So I decidedto face the bedding area for a while because thats where the last one came from. After 5 minutes i turned back around and saw a deer on a logging roadprobably 40 yards away. Once again i got pissed cause i thought they walked behind me on the logging road without making any noise butit soon turned toward me followed by another large doe. I had already ranged three openings on the logging road and when she stepped intomy second hole (23 yards away) i stopped her and cut loose.Since i was shootingperpendicular to my stand and underneath a branch i was bent kind of awkward and when i shot my string hitmy sleeve. But i watched my Lumenok dissapeared into her about midship. She ran about40 yards and did a flip then turned back towards me and fell after another 20 yards. Turned out i hit the liver,she was bleeding like a stuck pig. I was amazed at how fast myMagnus Stingers zipped through her and thenabout 7" ofit was stuck in the ground.I weigh about 190lbs so you can tell she was prettybig.
