Started bow hunting in 2016 and got busted every time I saw anything that entire first year. (except once...missed a giant buck twice in less than a minute. First shot went over his back by several inches. He ran about 10 yards and stopped so I grabbed another arrow and let it fly.....second shot hit a branch. Took me awhile to get over that one)
Did a lot of preparation, scouting etc. before the 2017 season and it paid off opening weekend.
Sitting on a hardwood ridge in a hang-on stand about 15 feet up and 3 does came in about 6:00 PM.
I waited for them to come up the ridge from behind me and drew back after the last one passed my stand.
Hit her right behind the shoulder at 10 yards and she maybe ran 50 yds.
Crazy thing is I killed my second with a bow the next morning. Pretty good opening weekend.
