coyotemaster Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 I took this whitetail doe this morning with the trusty Mathews compound bow. I was in the tree at daylight and had 2 small bucks come by, neither offering a good shot. It was getting late and I was beginning to consider getting down but decided to give it another half hour. At about 9:50 she strolled through the hedge and was heading for her bedding area, I waited for her to get broadside and bleated to stop her, I was already at full draw and released the shot at about 12 yds..It took her behind the shoulder and hit both lungs, she went about 30 yds. and dropped. This is number 4 since the season opener October 1. She probably dressed out around 135-140lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miroku_Dave Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 Brilliant! There is something extremely cool about hunting with a bow! (it may just be the Rambo films that I watched as a kid that are influencing my opinion!?!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coyotemaster Posted October 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 (edited) Thanks guys for all the kind words. The rut starts in earnest in anther week or so, this old girl was already starting to smell a little like estrous scent. If things go well I may shoot a buck worth gracing your site.
