I finally connected on my property here in Indiana. I haven't had a chance to hunt much in the evening since my job has me at work some nights. But, I was off today, hunted this morning, and missed a doe... Came out, and walked back to the house to get a bite to eat. Went out at lunch, and saw a small 6 pointer that I let walk. Went back to the house around 2, and decided to give it a go around 4 and hunt til dark. Around 6, I had another small buck and a doe behind me, and while watching them 60 yards away (which happened to be within bow range of another treestand) I caught a doe off to my left. After watching her for 20 minutes or so, I finally got a clear shot. Double lung shot and she ran about 40 yards and dropped. First deer from my new home... Thank God for a quick and humane kill. She wasn't huge, by any means, but I am thrilled.
The best part of the evening was my entire family WALKED from the house, brought my tractor and cart, and everyone grabbed some of my gear and my 9 year old drove the deer back to the barn in a Deere! Memories...
Oh, and 2 months ago, I switched to Muzzy 3 blades. I'm a believer. The broadhead passed completely through, stuck in the ground, and after cleanup, the tip and blades were like new!
Yearling corn fed doe, Yummmmm!!!
