That's awesome.
I give myself and my son another couple of years and we will start to Archery hunt. I hunted archery once when living in MO and I loved it. Never got back into it when I moved to WA. Sold my Bow and all that went with it.

Jonathan, that was a nice shot. Practice pays off, of course, but instincts really helped you out here. I suspect your "day job" and constant training has something to do with the instinctive reaction.
Very well done. Congratulations.

Thanks pd.
My day job isn't exactly a macho, instinct-stimulating gig though.
I think getting constantly busted by early archery elk or hesitating .5 seconds too long all September is what made me react so quick
I had to come back home and get "whitetail therapy" after getting figuratively kicked in the sac by elk and blacktails.

*Final Update*
Bacon-wrapped tenderloins last night, making a 10 lb batch of jerky tonight. The rest of him is vacuum-sealed and in the freezer.
We're off tomorrow to try and put another one to rest for my wife's first deer hunt.
Good luck MZs!
