Finally!!
« on: September 15, 2010, 04:43:23 PM »
Well after a few years of working hard to fill my deer tag it happend about 0750 this morning (I wasnt even going to go out and got there late). I sat on this large stump that was about 6 foot off the ground. I figured hey, Iam going to try and calling using a can call from Primos. About 2 minutes later I had a doe and a buck come in. I watched the buck for a good 15 minutes while he was eating and waiting for him to give me a good shot. At 30 yds, he finally gave me a broad side shot and I took it. I didnt here the arrow hit and then it had me thinking, did i just miss that deer. About a minute later I heard a deer breathing really hard, i thought hmm, maybe lunged him after all. I waiting for about 10 minutes to recover my arrow, sure enough it was caked in blood, I was so excited. I then waited about 30 minutes not knowing on the shot. I then went to go look for him and found a good blood trail, I found him about 40 yds later. Thank you God. He is only a spike, but had a big body. For the first black tail with a bow he is a trophy to me. Now to Michigan for some white tails. I will have a pict up soon.

Congrats. Funny how those " late days " or " maybe I'll go for a couple of hours"   really produce a lot of animals. Good luck in the future. Mike

Nice buck.  I'll be heading to Michigan on Oct. 8th for my best friend's wedding.  I'm taking my bow with me.  I'll be there for a week so I'm hoping to spend some time in a tree stand.  Good luck while you're there.

Nice looking deer. Good eating. Looks like you had nothing to worry about the shot. However, good job keeping a cool head and giving the deer a chance to expire. What did the daughter think about daddys deer?
