What a Shot
 

First let me tell you my situation. I shoot year round,Indoor 3D and 5 Spot,Outdoor field archery out to 80 yards.I live in the woods 1000 ft off the road The nearest house is 1/4 mile away.
Now the story. On Monday there was no work, I went out early to my favorite stand saw 7 Doe no shots.Came in for lunch, took a nap. Overslept got dressed and was headed out at 4:00 pm. Grabbed my Bow took 2 steps off the front porch and there were 3 Doe in the yard at I guessed 50 yards.1 small 1 medium and a mature Doe. They just looked at me, I slowly pulled out the rangefinder and 52 yds. I just stood there(didn't want to spook them) They just stood there eating some unmowed lawn. I took an arrow out of the quiver, nocked it ( no movement from the Deer) I drew settled my 50 yd pin on the mature Doe and pulled the trigger. Thwack . Instantly I thought that was stupid. The Doe took off. I slowly walked to where she had been and there was the arrow, a clean pass through, Bright red blood. I waited about an hour. About 20 feet from where I found the arrow the first drop of blood as I tracked they became closer, After 20 yds there was blood everywhere. I found her 60 yds from where I shot her . Heart shot. Now keep in mind I practice alot and still was not 100% sure of this shot. I was on almost level ground the deer were not alarmed

I wish i could wake up from a nap, walk onto my porch and get some fast food. congrats, wheres the pic?

While its the first arrow that counts. The number of proper form shots throughout the year paid off.
Congrats!

Congrats on the deer. Wish that I could take them in my own yard. Neighbours would be upset.

Must be nice to dream about it then shoot one down by the drive way after napping lol.

Nice shot! I to would like to shoot one from my porch.

Y'all must have some slow deer up there! Lol! If you tried that down here in South Texas, that doe would have been in the next county before the arrow reached the spot where she'd been.

I won't let my hunters shoot past 30 yards and I prefer 20 yard shots. We still have deer ducking the string. Clearly it worked for you and congrats on the deer. Still, shooting at a live animal is a very different ballgame than shooting a stationary target - I'd be careful or youre liable to end up with more wounded deer than you want.

I love the feeling of walking out onto the porch and seeing deer in the yard eating the acorns
