Was beating myself up this morning after bumping what seemed like a buck 10 yards from the tree I had hung a stand on last weekend. It blew a couple times and ran across the creek about 45 minutes before legal light. Took way to long to get up in the tree and settled and right after I did I heard a deer crashing through the creek below me just before legal light. Never saw it so might’ve been going the other way. The squirrels kept me on my toes all morning and at about 7:45 I heard what I assumed was the same one I’d been listening too all morning behind me, until the noise kept creeping towards me sounding more and more like a deer the closer it got. Eventually I see a doe walking along the ridge just below me only about 10 yards away. She stopped broadside at about 5 yards and I hit high and got her in the spine and dropped her. Nocked another and got her in the heart with the second and she died in about 20 seconds. First public land, saddle, bow and Georgia deer. Maybe should’ve waited to see if a buck was trailing her but hard to pass up a 5 yard shot. Got her donated for hunters for the hungry. Lost the broadhead in the spine and that arrow broke too. Trying to decide if I want to go to a 2 blade or stick with the snuffers since I’m down to 2 heads now.
