1st Bow Kill
Got my first bow kill ever this afternoon. Doe at 35 yards.
I was half way up the tree with the bow on the ground and saw her coming my way when she was on the other side of the cut in a ridge. So I got the bow off the ground in a hurry and an arrow knocked. Took her 15 minutes but she came on in. I shot her and had not even been able to get up the tree. Sometimes i guess you just have to be lucky. I hit her and she bucked. I didn't know it but she ran 60 yards and fell. The doe that had come in with her, I could see was jumping around and flagging about 60 yards away and then it spooked back under my stand. So I figured the one I had hit fell and frightened the one that spooked back toward my stand. I was right, I got down and she was laying right where the other one was jumping around.
Now I can't wait to get back out there. Got a little more confidence with this bow now. Wanted to give a thanks to everyone on here. Lots of knowledge on this board everyday and in old posts.
