I know that i'm new here but I thought that this is a good place to post this. I took up bow hunting last year. Last Saturday evening my wife, kids and I had tickets to the PBRA in Sioux Falls. I told my wife that I was going to go out deer hunting and be back in time to get cleaned up and go to the rodeo. She was hesatent but said ok and wished me good luck. As luck would have it about 10 minutes after sun down a doe came walking up the draw that I was setting on. I would like to say that my shot was perfect but it wasn't. I hit the doe a little farther back that what I had planned. I marked the last spot that I had seen her and went back home to get some flashlights and help. My wife was not in the least bit impressed when I told her I would have to miss the rodeo. My 4 year old, after hearing what was going on told Kristy, my bride that he was not going to go with either. That didn't help me much either but I told her to have fun and take her mother and her nephew. To make a long story short we tracked her for about 2 hours and lost the blood trail. I went back out on Sunday morning and found her piled up about 150 yards from were we lost the blood trail. That was my first official bow kill and it sure was fun to be able to have my son with me tracking it on sat. night. I just wish I would've woke him up and took him with on Sunday but he had Sunday school to go to and i didn't know how long I would be gone. Sorry if it's a long post but I just wanted to share.
