So after I shot a buck and never recovered it (believed to be a one lung hit) I decided to go back to the same tree tonight and try my luck again. Sure enough, a big doe and a yearling come out and start working towards me. At 25 yards they both turn and start walking out of the plot. I drew back and the doe caught my movement, but didn’t seem spooked by it. Either way I still held low just in case, and released. Shot was absolutely perfect, all the way until she decided to duck, letting the arrow fly an inch over her back.
The lease I’m on is set up terrible for bowhunting. The entire month of October, the club kills maybe 2 deer with archery equipment. So even seeing a shooter deer is rare when you bowhunt. But now to have had two opportunities, and screw up both of them, its made me really reconsider my plans to bowhunt all season long
