    1st Archery Animal

    Came down to pretty much my last 1/2 day of my season.

    Got a "little" room improvement but it was a good experience all round.

    We had a fresh dump of snow on Friday. On Sat Calvin and I had some fun chasing mulies around. Came close but no cigar.

    Snow was crunchy this morning so I thought my time would be best spent up a tree waiting for a whitey to stroll by.

    10 yd shot from my treestand. Went about 75 yds and I could hear him take his last breath.....a bloodtrail even Stevie Wonder could have followed.
    Only bummer was that my arrow sailed through him and stuck in the ground. Must have hit a rock and damaged the point on my Montec.

    My first archery animal.

    Congratulations Steve. He looks like a fine eating animal. One of the best game dinnners that I've had involved a whitetail loin and a bbq.

    Well done SSS!
    "If you want to hunt beasts you don't see every day,
    You have to go places quite out-of-the-way.
    You have to go places no others can get to,
    You have to get cold and you have to get wet, too."
    - Dr. Seuss
