Unexpected
« on: September 06, 2015, 01:01:53 PM »
After a harrowing incident of an arrow from my neighbor hitting my slider, we decided not to shoot in our back yards anymore, I was heading out the other day to finalize my Archery setup for elk. When I get to a good place to shoot next to some reprod and timber I see a nice buck standing down the hill looking at me. I have a multi season deer tag so I can actually shoot him if I wanted. Young deer and still in velvet but antlers about 2x higher than ears. Didn't even have broadheads on arrows yet: the purpose of the trip to be honest.  What are the odds...

Maybe it's a good sign for the season.

About 98%....   :chuckle:

Sounds like maybe just your neighbor needs to find a different place to shoot?  :rolleyes:   :chuckle:

100% on this occasion at least.  ;)

I've been having second thoughts about shooting here but I don't recall sending any into his yard. This is the third one from his side of the alley. It was his buddy doing the shooting that day and I think his bow was not setup at all. In fairness I've decided not to shoot and he has done the same.
