Posted a while back how I got permission to hunt San Juan island. Well went out Friday saw 4 deer total but nothing got closer than 40 yards. I use a recurve now so 40 yards is out of my shooting range. Went out again today to see if I can feel my tag before the season ends tomorrow. My dad saw 2 this morning but was again too far to shoot. No more than 1 hour and 30 mins ago I had 4 deer come with in 20 yards of my blind but wasn't giving me a shot. They eventually walked away. Almost giving up hope I saw a doe come out of the tree line just right in front of me. Made a bee line for the apples I had out in front of my blind. It was about 8 yards away from but didn't turn its body to give me a shot... I couldn't get control of my leg as it was shaking vigorously. I think I was too excited. Just as quick as it showed up it was gone. Ate one apple and probably got spooked from my excitement. Should be skinning a deer right now but there's always tomorrow!!! Wish me luck on the last day!
