Well this was opening wkend for me, got to doghouse about 1:30 pm. sat about 6:45 I look to my left and there is a nice doe about 25yds. and coming my way. She walked straight in front of my blind and gave me a perfect broadside at about 18 yds. I don't know why but the the 1st thing that came to my mind, was not only where was I going to hit her but where was it going to come out. I know I read that on this site, so I want to thank you guys for making me more aware of my shot placement, I got a nice double lung hit, she ran about 25/30yds. and folded up.
I know alot of you guys are probabilily Buck hunters, but as I said in a earlyer post I like 1 for the freezer, and I still have another tag so I can hunt the rest of the season, and if I'm lucky who knows.
Congrats Mike.... have a steak for me. I'm heading out at noon tomorrow when I get up from working night shift, to restock my baits sites. I'm like most other people on here, can't hunt till Oct. 01
Congrats Mike. The season has been in here for a week. Seen plenty of deer just none in range. If a doe walks out I will shoot as well. Remember one thing Buck or Doe, A trophy is in the eye of the beholder. My first crossbow kill would make me proud if it was a doe that was a clean ethical kill like yours. I have a buck here that I shot a couple of years back with 153 inches of horn hanging on the wall. I haven't found a way to cook those horns yet. Congrats again
