I got off yesterday at 1 PM. I had all my stuff loaded to go to Red River County to hunt yesterday afternoon and this morning. Yesterdays hunt saw 2 dogs running deer all over the fields. I did see a BIG cull, one spike on one side and 4 good points on the other. But I got no shot at him.
This morning got up a 5 AM, showered and hit the thicket. I have a feeder deep in the woods that has been pretty good. I got in the stand around 6:30. Only thing there until 8:30 was a coon. Then I saw deer moving thru the woods to the West.The wind are swirling pretty strong. The deer were skidish(sp). Instead on coming in to the feeder, they circled down wind...nose in the air. They slowly walked up to me, with one even looking up at me in my Ambusher. I figured it was over with. The largest doe stopped in some brush. I drawed slowly and raised up just enough to get the arrow over the limbs, I hoped. I released and thrack..The doe runs off with the fletching sticking out, but just barely. I think I hear her crash. I set there a few minutes and try to gather my composure . I get down and follow good blood 40-50 yards and there she was. I still act just like a kid when I find a deer, yelling and such. I laugh at myself sometime..
