Well sat I reported a hit doe, that's where it ended.long story short, I'm left eye dominant shoot guns lefty, damn good to, high shooter in marine corps boot camp in my platoon. But I've always had a RH bow, well this is the 3rd deer in 4 years I wounded. My right eye has gone to hell.went out sat. Afternoon and got set up with a new LH mission ballistic. Thank you to Hunters Landing in Batavia. I've shot the bow at least 75 times since saturday. Truthfully I've never shot better. Any hoo that brings us to this evening,went out with my 6 yr old son. Didn't get out till 615, that's when mom's home to watch our daughter. Walking in a doe took off from a field we were walking by, walked a little further and there's a deer starring at us from 10 yards away in the field, we r just into the woods 10 yards. I asked him if I should shoot, it's a doe fawn, he said no. So off we went to the stand. So proud of him. He stopped when I stopped he knows to be very quiet and whisper. Saw no deer from the stand, but 3 more walking out. Having a great time with him, helps me forget about my early mistake. Sorry this was so long winded, good luck to everyone.

I am having a real difficult time wanting to hunt in these warm temps away from home... The mad dash to recover gut drag load into trunk..... drive home then, hang, skin and quarter in 65-67 degrees ...just deflates all the enjoyment of it. Yes hunting from home has spoiled me...Camp is all down hill runs...so unless I have a shoulder drop it is gutting and no less than a 2hr drag up the hill...seriously it makes our hill here look tame....We do not leave the 4 wheelers there and I haven't a hitch on the car...

1st morning sit, to many green leaves need to trim this

stand!

Very warm , tree rats going crazy as well.

Highlight so far has been my pack falling 20 some feet.
