IowaDeerHunter Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 Sunday (October 31) I shot my first doe ever with my bow! She was a 160# 2 1/2 year old. The hunt: I was hunting a stand that I shot my buck out of last year, over the food plot. It was 3:00 and I had four bucks three little 1 1/2 years olds and a porbable 3 1/2 year old come with in 20 yards. The little ones ran across the ridge and the big one stood there over my buck urine, only sticking his head out of the timber for a shot. He turns around and walks back off into the timber. He would have probably grossed in the low 150's wide, heavy, and long main beams, but only oabout 8 inch g-2s wouldve been a ten point. At 4:00 I had my doe walk in from my left down the ridge top. She stopped at 20 yards and i drilled her. Broadside right through the top of her shoulder and coming out the other side around her heart. Double lunged her and she didnt go more than 75 yards, but righ tdown a ravine! So the draggind part wasn't fun, because we didnt bring the four wheeler either. Then at 6:20 I had a little button buck walk literally right under my stand and stand at 10 yards licking my doe in heat.Only one problem I forgot to take a picture of the tag on the deer for the contest! I have the tag but it isnt on the deer anymore, anything I can do about this, sorry team 15 members, I will get another one though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
