Well, I generally figure it takes me 3 years hunting a place to start getting things (a little bit) figured out.  It worked out just this way for me in Northern Missouri.  Third year on the place and I fumbled into a nice one.....

Shot him a couple days ago with one of my Jack Howard Gamemaster Jets and a big Snuffer.  I'm tickled with this guy considering the property has moderate bow hunting pressure and heavy firearms pressure.

Had a great hunt, saw lots of deer, had a bobcat try to climb the tree with me, and made some good memories.

I'm tagged out on bucks now, so its watching and waiting to see if "the" right doe shows up from now on out for me!
