This is my first year bow hunting, so i didn't have a clue what to expect or what to do. By the 2nd of November i knew i was doing something wrong, sure i had seen deer, alot of deer, 15 does one night. I talked with my neighbor and he said that he had seen some deer in his yard, a nice 6ptr, which sounded good to me, at this point i was going after any deer i could get. That evening i decided to go out, because i didn't have any thing else to do. I drug a sent rag.then sat by the base of a tree. I saw the 6 ptr but couldn't get a shot, about a half hr later i saw a buck chasing a doe a cross the field, they turned and headed towards the trees i was in. they came with in 15yds but spooked and ran before i could shoot. About another half passed(6:30pm) when i heard some deer, i hit my bleat call and they came over it was a doe with a nice 10ptr in tow. The doe came and sniffed my sent rag and took of, the buck was turning to follow when i drilled him at 25yds. when he turned to run i could see my arrow sticking out of his gut i thought, i let him lay over night. the next morning we found him 60yds from where i shot him. turned out that i shot him right behind the shoulder, through the lungs and my arrow got stuck in his other shoulder.
