Been hunting on the ground with the bow all year. Had lots of encounters on small bucks, passed a few does during the rut, and missed a nice 8 pt in November. Finally got some meat for the freezer tonight. She was walking straight to me and at 20 yards she realized something looked strange up ahead. Too late! I was already at full draw and released the arrow at the same moment she spotted me. She went about 30 yards and piled up. 5 more does hung around for about 30 minutes trying to figure out what happened, but I didn't feel like dragging 2 out of the woods tonight.
Happy New Year to everyone!
