catphish Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Nice doe I got last night. Happy I filled the bow tag. I used a mechanical head and found the arrow completely intact and the head closed. No exit wound. Arrow stopped right before exiting. Thinking the head opened inside and when it came out it closed ?? Anyone experience this ? Happy it got the job done anyway. Doe ran about 20 yards and found arrow about 10-15 yards from shot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I've had them close on me too. But after doing the autopsy you can see they definitely opened. Nice job.

tughillhunter Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Was going to leave early, but decided to stay and take all day tomorrow off. Also scored me some nice farm land in Cayuga to hunt, so I'm all excited about that. Never really hunted southern tier before.

two 10s Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Had a buck running a couple doe around at about 4:00, never seen him, just the doe. One came within range, but to many twigs in the way for a clean shot. Drew back, but didn't bothered to even try to get her to stop. At around 4:30 had a lil spiker come through. Hope to get out Thursday evening for one last sit here around home, before going down Thursday night for camp for the last day of bow and gun opener.

shawnhu Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) Called in a really big bodied buck around 2pm, he practically ran me over. Didn't see him charging behind me until he was 20 or so yards away, and I had no choice but to freeze. Now I know how it feels like to be a deer with a 2 ton hunk of metal with 2 lights heading right at you. He busted me and put on the brakes and stopped 5 yards from me and bounded out to 35-40 yards and stayed there. He decided to do a little modeling, turning left, turning right, moving his head up and down for that blue steel look from zoolander. Once he realized it wasn't a camera that was pointing at him fully drawn, he wasn't having that and trotted away. This thing was massive, shoulders the size of a horse. I've seen bigger racks, but never this big of a body. Was a fun experience. Oh, and almost hit one on the way to a meeting around 5:15PM. Doe ran across 6 lanes of traffic 65mph.

mlammerhirt Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 3 doe around 4pm just milling around and eating here and there.....was cool to watch how they didn't react to the gun shots surrounding the property I hunt.....a gun shop is located a 1/2 mile away and all the locals must have been dialing in the boom sticks for the weekend.
