One of my favorite spots was TOTALLY screwed up 10 years ago when the county opened the game preserve to hikers, bikers and archers. It ruined the state gamelands across the road. From 93 to 06, never had a year that I didn't at least get a shot. Until this year, hadn't seen a deer since 06.
Well. This year I sat in an area I walked through hundreds of times, but never sat in. Opening day I missed the biggest buck I have ever personally seen. A 10 with an inside spread going about 5 inches past his ears. Just not quite enough light for the open sights on my Lyman Great Plains.Wanted to die...
Yesterday, I was REALLY cold and shivering so badly I flubbed a 75 yard offhand shot with my 45 Black Diamond on a huge doe. Moved to a spot to get into the sun to warm up. Left my shooting sticks where I had been...
It is so great to find a favorite spot productive again. Even though I didn't tag that buck, it was awesome just to have seen him.
There is 2nd archery though...
