[QUOTE="bluedog69, post: 2256108, member: 118823"] Two yards. Yes hard to believe but it was 2 yards My first bow kill was about 35 years ago. Kneeling on a muddy cow trail that went under a big oak limb that had fallen and made a natural teepee door over the cow trail. There had been 5 bucks feeding out in a field. They had disappeared until one showed up and walked right to me. I Shot at half draw(peak poundage) almost in fear that he might charge me. I was kneeling on ground and his tracks and a cedar tree he broke off were 2 yards from my knee prints in the mud. [ATTACH type="full"]289609[/ATTACH] Fast forward to this year and my 11 year old tied me for a two yard shot. I had a tree stand 5 feet off the ground in the center of a tree with 13 one foot diameter trunks in about a 3 foot circle. Almost like a natural cage. He called and said he had shot one. I was about 70 yards away with my 9 year old. When I got there he was still in his stand. I said where was she? He said right where you are!!! I said no the trail is on out here about five yards. He insisted she was right there!!!!!!! I looked down and there was blood between my feet. I could touch the base of his stand from where I was standing. Super close on the ground is crazy exciting. When you can see individual eyelashes it’s close! [ATTACH type="full"]289610[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]289611[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]289612[/ATTACH] Life and God is great!!!!!!! [/QUOTE]
