It was a warm weekend for bowhunting here in Michigan, but with south winds I had a number of stands that put me between bedding and feeding areas.  I ended up taking a doe with my Silvertip longbow using Surewood arrows and a 160 VPA head and another with my Silvertip recurve using an Axis Traditional and a 200 grain VPA.  

The first shot was 15 yards and I was lucky.  My lower limb just barely clipped a limb as I released and I hit a bit further back than I wanted, but I went through the liver and she only went about 100 yards.  The second shot was 18 yards and I hit her perfectly.  80 yards and she was down.

On another note, I used my KUIU Tiburon clothing due to the heat and it worked as advertised  I was comfortable.  I didn't buy the KUIU for whitetail hunting as I am normally a wool plaid guy, but it worked great this weekend.

Unfortunately my pictures didn't come out very well with the darkness and humidity.  I have plenty in my mind.

Way to go Dave!
Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.
