Moosemaple Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 I harvested an adult swap donkey last night at 5:15, with my compound bow at 45 yards on state land. This was my second time out bow hunting this year. I had seven different deer come by where I was standing. I was hunting on the ground, with no blind. Eye ball to eye ball. The only thing that would have made it any better would be if I had used my long bow. I will use my long bow for the next one. Not to bad for someone 71 years old. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade Hunter Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Thanks Lawdaz! I read it again and got the same exact thing as when I first read it. I was referring to him stating that it would have been better if he had his long bow. As in, if it were with the long bow and not a compound, that would have been a lob. lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawnhu Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Awesome harvest! Passed on a 44 yard shot today, couldn't get my rangefinder on her in time and didn't want to estimate at those ranges. Gut feeling would have probably sealed the deal. Congrats again!
