Finally got an opportunity to pull my bow back on a deer and it was awesome! Got into camp Thursday night just so I could get one final crack before the guns showed up and it all came together. Got him in to 30yds and let it fly! ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2024/11/full-74225-435616-img_4942.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2024/11/full-74225-435617-img_4935.jpeg)

Congratulations. It’s hard kill em at bow range.
At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR Keep your gratitude higher than your expectations. RWH

You are correct sir and I may play it that way the rest of the season but I meant during true archery only season. I’ve enjoyed the hunt, with a bow, so much that I may just continue until January. Good job. And Archery season doesn't end until Jan 5th.

Were you in the blind in the pic or somewhere else?
The nice thing about archery is you can use it all season. It is fun when they get close and there is something about knowing you got a good shot on a deer.

I was in the blind in the back ground. I had corned to road from the blind to the feeder and he ended feeding his way from the feeder to the blind. I had tried a pop-up blind closer to the feeder but I was continually getting busted due to swirling wind or noise so I tried something different and it worked. I waited until I had the right wind and went in early and corned. If you look closely at the pictures you can see the two younger bucks that were with him. They were up feeding near the blind, 30yds, and he finally headed that way after feeding all around the feeder. I didn't think he was going to come in close so I was prepared to get him the next day during the rifle opener but I guess he picked everything around the feeder and decided to come move those younger bucks off of the corn near the stand and that's when I go my shot. It just worked out perfectly and was pumped that I was able to put a good shot on him.
