Welp, didn't expect it to happen on my first morning sit, but hey! That's why I was there! Had a forkie come in a little after 8am. He milled right past me to a big white oak. While feeding he snapped his head up which made me look and all I could see was rack! Of course it stayed up high instead of going right past me like the forkie. Well, while the forkie was feeding he fed right to where I walked. He sniffed and sniffed and sniffed never really alerting(no I don't use scent spray) but he was very curious. He proceeded to nip and sniff his way almost right to me. If it wasn't for the scrape he walked to I think he would've went the 5 more feet to the base of my tree. When he stopped for that scrape the other buck decided to walk out of the thick stuff and provide a shot.  I send it and it was back a bit, but he just bounced about 20ft and looked around still chewing. Then he started to walk to me again! I grab another Woodsman tipped arrow and when he turned at about 15yds let it slip again. Solid hit on that one. It got a bit more western after that as for some reason he STILL hung around. I don't stop until the animal is down. My PL helped me out again! Thank the good Lord for a good recovery and a nice, fat 8pt for the freezer!

Congratulations on a fine critter.

You done good....really good!
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

It's really simple. Just don't take those borderline shots. Tomorrow is another day.
