I made a promise to myself to only hunt with my xbow this year,and man I could kick my self right now!!
I had the biggest buck I've ever seen in front of me and all I could do was cry!!!
I was in my stand this morning when this monster came across the pine hill about 7:15 chasing a doe.
Well after about 5 min. of this show I could'nt stand it anymore so I hit him with my grunt call...stopped him dead in his tracks broadside,ranged him...127yds...I could just cry!!!
Normally this time of year I have a 300 win. Mag., but I'm not going to beat myself up over it...I feel blessed that the almighty allowed me to share this moment with such a beautiful buck (at least 160) and I will keep my promise...no gun's...BOW ONLY !!!
Keeping my promise !!

Re: Keeping my promise !!
Proud of you for doing that!...hes still out there and in your area. Great to see this time of year. Good luck with him with your x bow!...he will be that much more rewarding when he passes just about 20 yds from you!

You know he is their go get him and turn that regret into a sweet reward with a close encounter kill. Maybe try a doe decoy if you have one the second rut should be kicking in.
