I harvested a nice doe this evening at about six o'clock. Went driving around trying to find Daniel Boone Nat'l forrest to do a little scouting. Couldn't find it so I returned home and went below the house. Was too late to climb into my stand so I sat on the ground in a natural ground blind. I had two does come within 20 yards of me I chose the largest of the two and harvested her. I was sitting on the side of the Hill about half way up and they came below me eating acorns and taking their time.
I shot her and she dropped immediately. When I checked the shot I had hit sliced the spine, went throught the lungs and sliced the bottom portion of the heart. I was using a new Crimson crossbreed, had fixed blade and mechanicals I was so impressed, large holes and although I didn't have to track their was lots of blood coming out.
Felt good to get some meat and have one under my belt. I shot one earlier two days after opening, but she got away onto neighbors land and I lost her. Found ATV tracks where the blood gave out. So this was nice.
Good luck to eveyone.
