Default Doe down

Filled a doe tag a few days ago. Spot and stalk, closed a 300 meter gap down to 35 meters, she was behind a bunch of trees, the only shot was a small lane through the trees roughly 2' by 2', just had to hope she walked in the spot to line up the shot. Waited at full draw for roughly 3-4 minutes, she took and step and stopped, quartering towards me, perfectly in the shooting lane. Let the arrow go, it found the middle of the small shooting lane and connected with both lungs and her heart. Went about 40 yards and dropped. Awesome!

Congrats!

Nothing like stalking within bow range. Hunting at its finest!

Thanks fellas! I just downed my second doe last Wednesday, 16 meter shot from my tree stand. Nice to get one on a spot and stalk and one from a treestand! Freezer is full, now it's time to go for that big monster cranker that is lurking around, soon to be lured out of the night by a hot doe!
