28 degrees here. I'm finally setup. My first tree wouldnt work after setting my sticks, so I moved about 5 yards and reset up. While I was setting the platform 2 doe's came in and started eat acorns. I managed to get tethered in and bow pulled up and on the hook with them at 40 yards. Then it happened, you know the feeling of getting a tickle in your throat, I was gonna cough... I managed to suppress it but whatever was there wouldnt come loose. Finally got my backpack off and water bottle out. Took a sip and the cough came, look around the tree and theres the doe's looking at me... I got my pack hung up and they stood around another 3 or 4 minutes and took off. Never blew so that's a win
Because there wasn't time to wink, blink, or flip a switch.The only thing worse is diarrhea.
Anybody on the team shoot trad?
Shot my recurve (a hand me down Bear that was my dads bow as a young hunter) a bit when I got home. One of my goals for the season is to be proficient enough to take it in the woods for real. Skill wise I’m there, but with a very limited range.
I’m torn between taking it out and intentionally limiting myself when the rut is coming on. My secret plan was to take a deer early with compound then recurve the rest of the way. That first part hasn’t happened yet, hence the quandary.
