So we head out for a afternoon sit. We talk about ever 30 min or so and I call him at 6:08pm. No answer. I just start shaking my head. He calls me back a couple minutes later and I say "what did you shoot at" he says "I shot 2".

Mind you, this kid missed 13 deer last year, shot his first with a bow 1 week ago, missed a nice buck yesterday and he is telling he just shot 2.

Over to his stand I go. And I bump 1, damn. After the shot (in the shoulder) she went 30 yards and layed down. Ok.

Go to the stand, forget her for now where did the 1st one go. Ok, theres your broken arrow, ahh blood. 40-50 yards later here is a nice big doe, great shot son, high fives and hugs. gut, drag back to the treestand.

Off to the second one in the dark. Found her bed, and there is the blood. follow for 10 yards and bump her again. she is hurting but decide to give her overnight. Pack up and drag #1. Load into the truck, take pictures and hang.

Will be back at day break for #2, I don't think she will be far, just hope she is still good. low tonight is 56 deg.

the pics from my wifes camera were to large to post, this is a cell pic of her pic so its not all that great, sorry.

well heres an up date. We found the 2nd on this morning not to far from where we jumped it last night. thats the good news. the bad news is he already stunk. My kid felt terrible and I just told him that things happen but next time to just worry about 1 deer and not 2. ecspecially on afternoon hunts.

Congrats to all.

Are you heading to Colorado again this year? I've thought about going back, but hunting the area where Moe got his deer rahter than where we camped.
 
I am not sure when I will be heading out. I would like to swing it next year mabey. I would really like to spend the whole week over where he got his deer. Just have to see how things go.
 
Well, he may have had a bad year last year but it appears he has the monkey off his back and now on a roll!

Congrats on all three this year!
