Got a 3 point on the opening day of bow season here in MI. Snuck up behind me when I was reading a book, had to wrap around the tree and squeeze an arrow through a fork in the tree he was behind.
Ive been hunting this (public) land for 4 years, and have been skunked until now. Hes not big, but man am I ever proud. 10 minutes after the shot some mtn bikers came blowing through screaming, and i was scared the buck would take off if he wasnt dead... blood trail sucked but I found him about 50 yards from the shot (and 1.4 miles from the parking lot) #-o The bikers spooked a spike I had infront of me, and then I look to my right, and theres another spike bedded down 20 yards from my stand! 3 bucks, after having only seen 2 bucks in 4 years of hunting there! What a night!
God was with me tonight, Great shot, below average blood trail. Found him within 20 minutes, and then took the rest of the night to get him out.
Man am I giddy! Not my biggest, but certainly my best trophy yet. Those 3 points indicate hard work, patience, and dedication.
I'll get some pics up tomorrow when I have time.
Good luck and be safe.
