Just my luck...

[CuseHunter]

So I get out of my class and have an hour and a half before sun down, and decide to sit a stop right next to my college. The landowner told me about a ground blind and how there is a doe that walks right to it. So I sit in the blind, wait and it shows up... It presented a nice shot and I drew back. It takes another step and I wait for it to get closer as it was headed broadside walking closer to me. It stops and I let it go, nice broadside 25 yard shot. What do you know... My arrow hits the damn groundblind next to the window. It went right through the tent like material and broke into 3 pieces. Just my luck, not only do I 1) miss the doe 2) break my arrow 3)spook the deer... But 4) now made a star hole in the ground blind.

You young guys have all the luck................................NOT!

 

It'll happen, keep at it.  Lots of time left........................

I even checked to see if I'd clear the window... It looked good, then WHACK. Just hit the edge...

Always pisses my wife off when I do that...

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who has hit the blind. I felt like such an idiot for not just moving over and kneeling to take the shot. Definitely learning for mistakes and not successes this season.

At least you're learning?

So what exactly broke your arrow? Not the tent-like material, I'm sure.

it was the tent like material... I think it is the force of the arrow, right out of the bow hitting something.

Joking aside, glad it didn't hurt you somehow.

There is a reason my name isn't doewhacker after all.

Hey, your'e still young and in training don't worry. I'm 33 and made some mistakes along the way (and still do) trust me, plus I have been hunting since I was of legal age to.

[CuseHunter]

Yeah, it was my 2nd archery season this year, no family to teach me the ways. And first time ever hunting from a ground blind. The only way is up I guess

I would think a broad head would cut right through any tent-like material.
