[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 1247115, member: 4319"] I don't remember you telling that last year Dennis. Either I forgot, or you are just now fessing up.:D No epic misses with the bow, only doe/dink misses. Helps that I've never had an epic oppurtunity with the bow.:( I have had big ones feel that magical line that is my accurate range and walk the border of it. I clean missed the first little buck I ever shot at with a bow. At 7 yards. Newbie bow fever. I shot 2 feet over the back of a doe in 2008. She was the biggest in a group of does. I was following her with my bow (she was behind me) until she hit my lane I had picked out. Well, I didn't account for the tree being there. Bumped my bow on the tree, finger hit release and I see the arrow arc over her and stick in the ground. She jumped, then calmed back down and fed off down the ridge on acorns. I laughed out loud in my tree it was so stupid. Low and behold 15 minutes later, they return and I miss her again. I have no idea why. I though I hit a limb, but might have just been flustered from the first miss.:o [/QUOTE]
