Title: First one down in Indiana
Post by: emfunk on October 19, 2009, 01:41:00 PM
Man I went up to Clinton County, Indiana to hunt with a long time friend which we do several times during a hunting season. Got in the tree around 4pm and the wind was blowing up in the 20mph range and gusting alot more, so at first thought I really didn't think I was going to see a squirral let alone a deer, at 6:55 on the tractor trail between the corn and the creek I see a B.Buck coming my way, got up and waited and here came the Doe right behind. She was walking under the branches to my right so I had to hold off to shoot her till she was at 8 yds and coming out from underneath the branch. Well she, for no apparent reason looked up, She went to full alert but I was already in shoot mood and I was waiting for her to turn and as she did, I drew and released, very quick dispatch of the animal just a 60 yd recovery. Field Dressed 117lbs
Shot with Ben Pearson 55lb Recurve and Tapered Cedar shafted tipped with a 160gr VPA Terminator.

Good shooting. But it looks like she had been drinking - or is that a product endorsement photo?
