The opening day jinx continues....
 
I put up a stand for my buddy to use on opener. By 8am he saw 4 deer. one buck, one that could have been a buck and a doe and fawn. The doe and fawn bedded by him. On my way into the woods to get him I kicked up the doe and fawn and they went right to my buddy. I gave a hoot hoping they would stop. They stopped 3 times. Finally the doe stopped broadside and gave him a 20 yard shot. He put one over her back.

2 years ago he hunted my honey hole on opener and he had 2 bucks within 15 yards of his stand. Blew that one too. hehe. Actually his release blew that one. the arrow went about 2 yards and landed on a stump. CLANK!!!! That night (still opener) he missed a doe (broadside) from approximately, oh, 3 yards. He blamed that one on his range finder. j/k.

He hasn't missed very many times and he's never wounded a deer so I can't give him too much crap. He's missed a few easy shots but gets the 30 yard running buck hail mary. go figure.

At least he's still trying! Got to give him credit for that.
