Hopes are for Thursday on , not full on chasing here yet . Two doe came by at first light, buck behind them walking back and forth he lost interest and walked away . The doe hung out for awhile then went into the bean field and stayed there for like ten minutes . Two doe came out of thicket and joined them , monster buck following , 4 doe and the buck just hung out for a few minutes then they all walked off . nothing now since 7:30 -

So aim from tree stand , same spot as on the ground
Nomad replied to luberhill's topic in CrossBow Hunting
Just ran a Pythagorean’ theorems, 20 feet up deer at 60 feet ( 20 yards ) true distance to target is 63 feet . A non issue , since your bow shoots the same at 60 and 63 feet . -

He’s talking about with a crossbow, bend at the waist is moot . My testing , shooting from height , dropping my bow arm or bending at waist showed no difference in poi . Ya I know everyone says to bend at waist and by all means do , just for me doing both showed little to no difference. Try it yourself . How many have ? -

32 years , bow hunting , I’ve never seen a range finder ,let alone used one, but to each his own . As TF said aim at the off side , “ that is “ where you want the arrow to come out . It helps to shoot in practice from height ,either your roof ,or a stand ,( practice as you hunt ! ) at a thin target so you can see how the arrow is positioned at the exit side . I use a 3 inch thick foam target , I tape a piece of paper in the shape of the vitals on the close side , you quickly learn the proper shot placement , for different distances and angles , to hit both lungs . -
That’s the rumor . That would be ok by me, although he may be a little dry . One reality show you’ll never see though is , “ The hot Women of Jeopardy .”

That’s for shooting around trees, must have had it on the rest reversed ,zigged when it should have zagged .

About 20 years later. Leaf blowing my trails ,there she lay, minus the three five inch feathers . Based upon the location ,and arrow , I recall this shot . A buck came out, I pulled the Golden Eagle back ,ready to send a two blade Mangus through the lungs, when whack ! The arrow is bouncing around his antlers , wtf ,I’m at a loss, then I see a small vine swinging a little . It’s the old “ I hit a vine / sapling “ excuse . I don’t know if the arrow bend is from the hit, or stepping on it as it’s on a trail , we’ve walked in and out on 100’s of times since . I remember that hunt well ,not just hitting the rack , but I was mentoring a kid, who’s since served in the Army, got married and has a family of his own now . Loved those Mangus two blades ,absolute bone cutting pass through killers , the only head , where I’ve had deer stand there after a pass through and look around ,till they tipped over . And yes that’s a hand painted arrow and crest .

Nomad replied to nybuckboy's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
Republicans,Democrats,two sides of the same coin. Republicans take my money and give it to bankers and businessmen , Democrats take it and give it to slackers . Fortunately The republicans will take the Senate, they have the Supreme Court and gained in the house , so Biden’s big ticket plans have little chance . Meanwhile , we’re of the age where asset protection is as if not more important then growth, we’ve been taking steps over a few years ,and stepped them up of late , with luck I’ll pay less in tax then Warren Buffet . -

You and me both . I’ve hunted this spot 32 years both gun and bow , if I go 3 sits with no deer I wonder what went wrong, as I see 4-8 deer most sits . This year most sits zero deer . -
