Listen to the woods

I planned to stay on stand until 10:30.....the woods got me stay a little longer.
I had my backpack on and was pulling out my tow rope for my bow when I heard a deer running it's  a doe being dogged by a small buck. I give a few grunts and decide to stay awhile longer since they are moving. I hang my backpack and re-knock an arrow. Six minutes later here comes a buck down the ridge I'm on....he's broadside at 17yds and the arrow is gone....it's all over by 10:37. Listen to the woods they occasionally give us hints.

Well done, good example of when they are in the rut, stay as long as possible...

Yep, especially during the full moon week.  People are idiots for not hunting mid day, and those that claim 'its too windy'. What no hunting pansies. Those to claims how ignorant they are and were destine to be 'basket weavers'.
Blaze out your own trail.

I can afford to shoot most any bow I like.  And I like Primal Tech bows.

Nice deer.  Way to follow your gut and stay a bit longer.

Learn, practice and pass on "leave no trace" ethics, no matter where you hunt.

Top stuff right there.

Nice !!

I've never ever been disappointed when I "Listen to what the bush is saying"
Had some of the greatest hunting and memory making moments when I do.

Good hunting to you all.
May the wind be your friend, and may your arrows fly true,
Most of all, may the appreciation and the gratitude of what we do keep us humble......
