Well I went and sat in a stand up top where I haven't sat in yet this year. I figure if there not down belowI will try up high and see what happens. I took my turkey call also because there are usually turkey in the field behind my stand. That's not property I can hunt, but have called turkey out of there before. I got into my stand about an hour before daylight. After light I got out my range finder and ranged a few spots where I figure deer might come out. I should have gone up there a few weeks agoand cut some branches. When I stood up there where allot in my way. So I figure I will have to sit when I shoot, it will be my only chance to get around these branches.I started calling a little, nothing. Hit the rattle bag a lightly, nothing. IHit the rattle bagpretty hard, then I thought I heard something behind me,so I grabbed my bow off the hanger, it was a pesky red squirrel.Then out steps a deer, its a buck. I can see that its at least a 4 point possibly a 6. I told myself I would not shoot anything smaller than a 6 point, that was just my personal goal, to beet last years 5 point. He was at 40 yards and never knew I was there. He was looking forward and down, but not up where I was. I pulled my new Pearson Vigilante back, I had to tread my arrow throughtwo limbs. I hit the release and let my Sabre-Titanium 100 grain 3 blade ( same as a Muzzy ) fly with my lumanok lighting the way. That was too cool. I watched it hit the deer and disappear. But I'm thinking OH CRAP!!! I hit him to far back, CRAP!! he fell trying to get away and quickly got back up and headed back to where he came from. I'm thinking, I will have to come back later in the afternoon to look for him, as I really felt I gut shot him. I text my wife to let her know I shot one. I had to be back home at 10 and it was a little after 8. Then while texting my wife back I hear a crash in the thickets. I'mhappier than a pig in chit now, thinking was that him that fell. So I get down, go over to where I shot him and there lies my arrow with the nok all lit up, covered from tip to tail in blood and fat.i washoping it was him I heard. I found the blood trail, and a start to fallow it and there he was, dead as can be. WAAAHOOOOO!!!!!!! I was so excited. 7 points, even cooler. I got him home, 135 pounds dressed. My biggest deer ever, gun or bow. I am so ecstatic. Sorry for the long post, its just to cool. The pressure is off now.
