Okay I know I should't post this because I don't have pictures yet but I'm not sure where the camera went that we took the pics of and I have too much homework to look but anyway. Yesterday I went out and hung a stand in a new spot. So tonight I decided to see what would go on there. So I'm sitting in my stand right after school. 4:45 rolls around and I hear alot of noise behind me so I turn around and there is a big truck just dumping dirt, so I was like great now the nights shot. Well I stuck it out and a half hour later a doe and two fawns pop into the picture and they are behind me. So I'm looking over and I know the doe scented me but just ignored it because she had her nose in the air for about five minutes. So I turn and look into the bean field and about 150 yards away is a buck coming towards me. This is now about 5:00. So I keep watching him. All of a sudden I realize I now have 9 does and fawns behind me so I was thinking great they are going to bust me. I look for the buck again and he is gone. So I just wait. At about 5:15 I see him coming right at the montana buck decoys and he is about 10 yards away and I draw and pop him right in the front shoulder and he drops instantly. Well story isn't over yet. He tries to get up and walk away into a corn field well pull himself into a cornfield. So I shoot him in the spine and that was the end of it. Haven't scored him yet but he a seven pointer with one weird antler that must have gotten broken early in the spring. It has a drop tine too!

Wow! Good job on your first deer by bow. It usually pays more times than not, to be patient and just wait for the opportunities to appear. Once again, good going, I really like drop tines too.
