Hunt Story

I was sitting in my loc on and looked to my right, and he was just standing there like they sometimes do. I got my video camera on him and zoomed in but never hit record I was so shaken up. I grabbed my bow and took the shot, which looked high from where I was, and I thought it was right over the lungs and stuck in the right shoulder. After 30 minutes I was going to get down and look for blood and make a game plan. Before I could get down another nice 8-point and 7-point came right under my stand, then four does came by, so it was 50 minutes before I got down. I didn't see my lighted nock sticking up anywhere in the woods, so my heart sunk. I did find good blood though, and after about 30 yards I found my arrow broke off with deep penetration by the blood on the shaft. After about 50 more yards my fears were over and the shot was a lot better than I thought.
