Way for you both to keep after it!  Persistence and patience are so important to the hunt!  And that is an awesome-looking doe- big and fat!  She will be great on the table.

When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

Way to go, Cory! Great job in all respects. You don't know the work OR the reward until you experience it! (David took 5 shots before his 6th round put his first doe down like a truck fell on it! He was 8 too!)

Enjoyed the story!
