Still goin after the frist buck with the bow. Well it happens. Got in the stand about 5:30. Been having deer coming out the corn about 7:20, so i just sat there and waited. Well about 7:30 i hear the leaves a rusling and knew it was time. Well a cow horn came out to my left followed by 2 does. They swung around and came out at the corn. Well the buck i shot at came out almost rite under my stand. He walked twards the corn and got about 12 yards from me and i figured if i got a shot i better take it cause i didnt want to shoot him around all the other deer and take a chance at hitting one of them. I drew back and he turned slightly to his right and gave me a sharp quartering shot. I put the pin back to make up for the angle and let it fly. Well he jumped string and droped alittle but at the angle he was at, I felt good about where it hit. I waited about 10 mins got down to see if my arrow was there. Nope no arrow, o boy here we go. I backed out and called a buddy of mine to help me find him. Waited about and hour and went in. First place of blood i found was about 20 yards from where i shot him but it was a pile of it. For about 50 yards it looked like someone just walked and poured blood out of a bucket. Then the blood got alittle thin, but picked back up. All in all i trailed him about 200 yards and lost the blood. Woods opened up and couldnt find a drop. We looked for alittle while longer and couldnt find nothing so we left. Got up this mornin and trailed it rite back to where i lost it and just started walking through the woods and didnt come up with nothing. I guess thats just the way it goes with bow hunting. Be back at it next week.
O yea.
