Well it started off as a really slow afternoon. The squirrles and birds were goin crazy but i hadnt seen a single deer. All of the sudden i spotted a deer walken around at about 400 yards. I picked up the binos and saw it was a decent buck and watched ashe checked for does in a small been feild. He then walks east along the fence row and i lose site of him. 5 mins later i see a deerwalking/running towards me and notice its a buck. I have no clue if its the same one or not because i lost sight of the first one. He continued his walking/running and checking for does all the way into my stand. He was 30 yards to my right but i didnt feel comfortable taking the shot or making the movement because my safty harness was in the way. I decided to hit the CAN and once i did that he immedity turned around and came trotting right to me. He was quarting slighty away at 20 yards when i shot him and after the shot he jumped in the air and grunted really loud.He broke my aarow in three placesand ran 60 yards and fliped over and died. This is my second deer/second buck with my bow and i couldnt be any prouder. He was shot of the 5th of November the exact same day as i shot my first buck last year. He is a very nice 7 point and weighd about 170 pounds give or take a few.

I wish i would have been able to take some nice feild shots but we didnt have enough time or enough light to do so.
