[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 1644980, member: 4319"] Nice job guys. Congrats on the first bowkill Fireproof; there's no turning back now. Gah, what a season and what a week. I've been running ragged and bumbling about without much luck. Made it to the lease at 4:05; I didn't even have time to change so I hunted in street clothes and work boots. I run out 40 yards from camp with my pruners and clear a few branches from the cedar I sat under last night (from which I bumbled a shot a big doe). 4:15 I sit down and notice a button buck 60 yards out. I watch the button feed in the rain until 4:50 or so when I turn to glance over my left shoulder and see this 8 point standing 16 yards away and slowly coming towards me. Now, this is the size of deer I passed multiple times last year...but I didn't even hesitate on him tonight. Sometimes you got break your bad luck cycle and get some meat on the ground so you can regain your focus. I've never had such bad luck trying to get a dang doe in the freezer as I have this year. Oh well, this guy will cook up the same. I'll be out with a bow the rest of the week, and won't be shooting at another buck this year unless he's up there with my personal best. BTW...his tarsals were dark and he reeked. The shavings in his antlers say he's been rubbing today; these next three weeks should be prime time. I'm loving this cold, rainy weather.
