Had one of those nights last night. Went for my first sit of the year. I've had a goal to take a deer with my longbow for the last couple of years but between a broken arm last year and my wife and I haveing a baby the year before I just haven't gotten it done. Last night had a beautiful 140 class whitetail stroll by at about 40 yards. That was a hard pill to take as it would have been a chip shot with my old wheel bow. Then had a little doe come right under the stand and shot over top of her back. Should have waited on her as the shot was almost directly between my feet. But all in all it was a fantastic evening! Can't think of any place that I would have rather been and can't wait to get back out there. Something about those traditional bows. If it wasn't a monsoon outside right now I'd be shooting, Lord knows I need the practice!
