After helping my buddy get his buck out last night, I managed a few hours sleep and went out myself this morning for my first hunt of 2008. After spending a couple of hours on a very uncomfortable treestand seat, I decided to climb down at about 8:45AM. I wanted to take a little look at where the deer were entering the wooded area from the corn fields, and do a little stalk.

I was proceeding through a little clearing, with a bush to my left...as I passed the bush I looked up to see a doe looking at me from 30 yards, through some trees. She and I had a little "stare-down" for a few minutes, with her stomping at me the entire time. I slowly crouched down into the weeds, and the curiousity got the best of her. She slowly proceeded to walk directly towards me. I had the Vortex crosshairs planted on her the entire time, but she didn't give me a decent shot. As she got to about 12 yards, she finally quartered slighty, and I let fly with the GT II with slick tricks. Took her through the front shoulder, with enough energy to get the bolt buried into her about 3/4 of the way. She took off, and only ran about 30 yards before piling up. Both deer are now at the abattoir, making the search for winter venison a short one this season. My buddy and I both managed success on our first trip to the bush in 2008. How can we top that???

Here's a couple of pic's. Good luck to all....Now I'm after ole Mossy Horns!

Kids at work...they're finally old enough to be of use...lol!

My youngest and I...and he has the hunting bug already...cried fiercely when he couldn't come to the bush to help get the deer! Gotta love it!

Oh, and I guess I need a pic with the bow for the contest...right? Sorry....nobody else with me to get a person in there too! Best of luck to all.....

Congrats Korey, the bottom of that deck sure gets a workout each season. Are you done or do you have a buck tag left?
