It was a great weekend at camp with my dad. I shot this doe 30 minutes after he shot a small buck.
I almost screwed up though. I knew the shot was back and low. She took two or three quick jumps then slowly walked out of sight so I knew she didn’t go far. Even though I kept telling myself to leave the arrow until morning I decided to sneak up to it and verify the hit. She was bedded fifty yards away and jumped up and took off. Luckily, even after a rainstorm last night we were able to find her about 200 yds from where I jumped her. I knew better than to go get that arrow but, every once in a while I just have to be reminded the hard way.
