Sorry about the delay. I dropped signal... Deer 4 Red 0. I'm not a blame guy but I'm about to be in those scenario. As I was drawing my bow I felt it bump the top of the blind. Not thinking about the draw compressing the limbs and making the ATA shorter I got settled and took my shot. My bow banged off of the top of the blind and ai could throw and arrow faster than it left my bow. This whole thing is a pretty humbling experience.
Things I have learned on this hunt. Me being 6'5" shooting a 60" bow; I can NOT shoot out of our blinds. They're awesome for a compound but not my stick bow. Also, I'm done hunting the way everyone else does because it just puts me in a bad mood and that's now what I'm hunting for. I'm about to pull my camo off and put my boots on and make some tracks and get back to my roots. I've been a hang and bang guy from day 1 but feeder guarding in the Panhandle has made me lazy. I'm about to locate me some feed trees and pinch points and I will be back with my climber!

I'm in, signal is pretty spotty. This spot is beautiful. Had a group
Of big Tom's (see y'all in the spring!) roll through just as I was getting my harness hooked up. Managed to get a pic of 1 if I can get it to load. River swings in tight to about 50 yards and this is straight bottom country loaded with hardwoods. Between the river and the pasture is probably 200 yards wide and several miles long. A road T's right here and very well used game trail makes it a 4 way. No feeder, no corn, just hardwoods and a big scrape that needs to get worked this evening. I feel like I'm back home on the Neches River bottom! I'll be spending more time down here!
