My weather app lied to me I was surprised to find that it was only 28 degrees and not 42. I didn’t see a single deer on the drive in this morning.

I’m sitting over a large field with a food plot right in front of me hoping they come out for a late breakfast. Haven’t seen anything yet

I use AccuWeather and it us consistently 5-6 degrees off in the morning. Seems better for afternoon, dont know why other than land features.

Agreed.  Been there myself.  I actually laughed when he walked over and sniffed the knock. 
I'll hopefully get another crack at him.  Things are really heating up fast.  
Hopefully I can figure out what happened this morning.  Took a couple shots Friday afternoon with no issues, and there was nothing between him and I except air. 
My guess would be that the arrow was not seated on the rest.

Use a plastic grocery bag to put nocks in tight, cut off excess.

I actually have some in there. Able to twist the shaft when knocked, but it's difficult with just my fingers. 

Just shot with all my gear on. First was 2“ left, next 4 we're dead nuts. All will the same broadhead.   So, either I fudged up and forgot everything about follow through over the 40+ yrs of bowhunting, or string caught something. Either is possible I guess.

It’s amazing how these squirrels saw the 2 Cooper’s hawks sail in and now have one at 75-80 and the other at 100 yards perched in trees. 
Coyote death ran into horse farm , oops. My first one and I can’t / shouldn’t go get it.

I'd ask them if you can retrieve it.   But if it only a few yrs in, I'd just go grab it.

The ladies are toying with my emotions. Had 2 pop out on the other end of the field 350ish yards away. They milled about for a while then went back in the woods. Bout an hour later a catch them making a b line right at me in the field on the edge of the woods. They get to about 170 yards and duck into the woods. Haven’t seen em since.

You know you could come up with a cool story like a fisher attacked or some zombie squirrel jumped out of the tree after you tried to shoot it!!  LOL

Hopefully you recover quickly.
