Persimmon Doe

Spent Saturday afternoon scouting some area on a piece of public land I found during Turkey season. I found a few water oaks that showed promise, but are still a few weeks out. Instead of walking out the same way I walked in I walked another big loop to see some different ground. I was able to find one of the hottest Persimmon trees I’ve ever seen. I spent this evening set up about ten yards from the tree. I had a pair of does come in about 30 minutes after I stopped moving. She jumped the string a little, but a quick second shot and she was ready for a walk out in the backpack. Nine Yard shot, Zwicky No mercy for arrow one and a Magnus single bevel for arrow number two, Both Flung from my little Martin recurve.

nice! Maybe I should hunt a spot I know with about a dozen loaded persimmon trees. I don't know if they are ripe or not yet, I haven't scouted there in a month or so.
Hopefully nobody else is hunting it there are no trees big enough for a tree stand so ground hunting I might be in luck. All I need is one evening of not feeling like I'm in a sauna! :( Darn this heat & humidity!
