Title: Living up to my name
Post by: shot2high on October 24, 2008, 09:27:00 PM
Went out late this afternoon behind my house. I took a stool and set up off a trail beside a tree. I really did not think I would see anything, I was just happy to be out. About 6pm a very large doe came in and stated feeding about 15 yards away. Eventually she saw me and she had the normal head bobbing foot stomping display. I was rather composed during all this, I get REAL calm just before the shot. Well, she turned and walked directly away giving me the chance to draw. When I reached full draw and the cock feather touched my nose she turned right, as if on que, and gave me the prettiest quartering away shot. OF COURSE I shot2high. This is amazing I simple forgot to pick a spot.....AGAIN.  :mad:   I retrieved my arrow and pulled out a blunt tip arrow. I walked back to my backyard and saw one of the empty water bottles (20 oz.) I throw around the backyard as blunt/judo targets. I drew on the bottle and SMACK it went flying.  :banghead:   I stepped it off, 27 paces. Go figure.  :confused:  


I can't wait for tommorrow!
