Title: The long wait
Post by: THE PIG STICKER on January 15, 2010, 09:36:00 PM
My buddy called me today and asked if i wanted to hunt at his farm. So i headed down around 2:30 in the afternoon. We talked a bit then i headed to my tree. On the wayin i jumped 7 deer. I was frustrated but i sat it out. Around 4:45 i see a deer to my right about30 yards. It was a doe. It took 20 minutes for her to work to within 12 yards. Here is my chance broadside looking away. I started to pull my bow back. As soon as i hit my ancher and was focused on my spot she looks at me. I let it fly. She dident jump but i hit her a little back. It was borderline liver guts. She hoped a couple of yards and looked back. Then she started to feed she dident even know she was hit. Then she walked another 5 steps and beded. I wanted to put another arrow in her but there was no shot to thick. I sat there an watched her for an hour. Then i climbed down and went to talk to my buddy. I told him where i hit her and we waited two hours and went in to take a look. We found where she beded and he looked at my arrow. We agreed to get out and look tomarrow. She was bleeding decent and we dident want to push her. So i will let you guys know how it turns out when i get back tomarrow.

I found her in about ten minutes this morning. she only made it about 90 yards from where i last seen her. The shot was back where i thought just behind the liver in the guts.
