Last day of the regular bow season here in KS.  Decided to bring in the New Year with a last night hunt.  Visited with the rancher almost too late. . . got to a new stand at 4:00.  Dead still quiet.  Had deer milling around by 4:30.  4:45. . . a mature doe steps out.  Wow. . .last of the season. . . oops!. . arrow is looking good but drops under her belly. She jumps a little but just walks out.  

Okay. . . slow, slow. . .  new arrow on.  She gives me a 20+ broadside.  Arrow zips through. . .a little further back but nicely low.  She just takes two quick steps then looks around.  Walks off about 25 yards and stands there for a few minutes. She then beds down right there. . . dang it. . . too far back- defintely not a  double lung. . .she gets up after 20 minutes and walks ten more yards where she drops for the count.  

New Year's Eve deer. . . such a gift.  Drive the car up within 25 yds.  I clipped the back of one lung and centered the liver.  

Sharp heads did the trick again!

Great way to end the year. . .

Sorry no pics. . . battery dead on the camera!!

If we're not supposed to eat animals ... how come they're made out of meat? ~anon

Bears can attack people- although fewer people have been killed by bears than in all WWI and WWII combined.

What a nice wrap to put on the old year. Congrats and happy New Year!

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Nice way to ring out the old, and bring in the new.  congrats!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
