Took a nice fat doe yesterday evening 90lbs.It was less than a 3 yards shot.Took out the liver and 1 lung.She went about 150 yards. I shot her at about 15 till 7.so I got out of the stand and went back to the cabin and changed cloth just to give her a little time.Me and A buddy went back to track her at 15 till 8.About an hour.When we got close to her we heard something and thought it was her,well it
wasn't it was Coyotes.In years passed as cool as it was last night I would have waited till in the morning,good thing I didn't.We got there just in time they had just found her so it turned out OK.
They only had time to chew on the ribs but that was all.I killed her with the I.W. bow I posted a few
months ago.It didn't do much on BOM but it was the bow of the night for me.I also was using my
pretty yellow hickory arrows,self nocks and 160 ace head.Shot clean through her from back bone to chest.Who say a self bow don't have any ump.The bow is 50@26 and a 650 grain arrow.

Keith got a doe that could be your's twin yesterday morning...weighed 90 lb also. He took it with his hickory selfbow and went through one shoulder forward in the shoulder and lodged in the opposite shoulder. I think she ran around 70 yards.

Great job Pappy ... sure is a good feeling when you take them that close... your hunting skills are surely refined over the years.. I think many could learn something from you concerning the hunt as well as your bowyer skills.. great job brother... HAWK

Thanks guys,Hawk I am hunting from a tree,some don't think that is doing it the hard way
but I am pretty sure the Indians hunted from a vantage point of some kind when the chance was offered. Plus stalking a whitetail is really tough I mean really ,really tough and I like to eat. :)
Thanks for the complaments just the same. :)

Man You're a killing machine. We have an NRA banquet tonight and a Pheasant Hunt on Sunday. 2 more weeks before we can chase deer in NY. Hunting videos and all of these success stories are getting me pumped! I'm going to do some work on my BBO this weekend. I had to put a patch in a pin knot that was letting go on the upper portion of the limb. I hope it holds so I can use it for LBL.
Keep them coming,
Glenn

Glad you got there before the coyotes did too much damage.... I think y'all need to start putting a few coyotes down when the deer season is over...
