Well, I will get it started off, Slash from Team 4 scored as well. I had four deer come out about 15 minutes before shooting light was gone. Three Does and a decent 8 point, the buck kept going but this big nanny (125#)turned and come in for a 12 yard shot and I let the Muzzy eat. She ran about 35 yards and piled up. It made for a late night but well worth it. It was a mile stone for me, with this deer making #50 with a bow. good luck to all and be safe out there.

Well, its not any more points for Team 4 but it's another Doe for the season and freezer. I shot this girl this morning, surprisingly she made it about 100 yards before dirt nap city. I hit the off side elbow, still got a pass through and heart hit but she was so dang nervous. The wind was blowing hard this morning and had her all ready wound up. Man, I love bowhunting:toot:Now it's time for antler hunting, to get a replacement for my Doe in the contest. Good luck and be safe to All.

Well, I guess I will keep posting the success thread myself:) No buck yet but did take another Doe on Thursday, the acorns are really falling here and the activity is starting to get better. I got a 5 yard shot on her, so it was a straight down shot. She made it about 100 yards before dirt nap city and making #3 on the season so far. Good luck to all and hunt safe out there.

He's not a monster but antlers none the less. I had this guy come in at 10 yards this past Sunday browsing on acorns and heaidng to some scraps around my stand. I drew at one point when he was in some thick cover but he walked past an opening I had a shot through. Trying not to get detected, I slowly let my bow back down and let him do his business. After about 15 more yards, he walked even closer and right out into the shooting lane I had, stopping to feed I let him have it at 10 yards. Shooting through both shoulders, it broke him down right there. I went ahead and put another arrow in him to finish him off quickly. It was a good evening and I got some antlers for this season. Good luck to you all and be safe out there.
