Well I said it before and here we go again.  

WHO SAYS IT CANT BE DONE?  

Went out this afternoon to my usual spot and got all set up camo,bow out and extra arrows sitting in front of me. But did not like how I was sitting but I stuck with it did not want to make any more noise.This is because I am dead from waist down and have to hunt from ATV,beleave me it sucks!!  

Well about 5:30 I see a set of ears wiggling there way up the hill in front of me.I am able to get my bow off of my lap before it gets to top of hill the little doe heads straight to the spot where the rock had been most of summer about 12 yards in front of me.Well it spends what seemed like a half hour licking the ground and looking around.Looked right at me at least a dozen times and never seen me,I guess I camo up pretty good.  

Naturaly I am shaking like crazy but still not seen.Well it finaly starts to move and did go in the perfect direction heading in front of me for a super 12 to 15 yard broadside shot.Steps behind one of my bushy trees I use for a natual blind,get the bow up and drawn about half way and it catches me.I am doing all I can do to hold the bow steady and looks away.  

Full draw shoot and I watch as the lumenock goes under by an inch if that     :thumbsup:      :thumbsup:
