  1. Id Say do away with bonus points. All its doing is causing a conundrum. Just have a simple draw. Your either drawn or your not. People get so carried away focusing on their points, rather than hunting it seems. Plus a lot of people complain that more and more people are applying, yet multiple people apply in multiple states and draw multiple tags. Talk about the quality of animals dropping. How many deer, elk, sheep, etc does a person need to kill per year. That's just my 2 sense. On the other hand my card hasn't been hit either, and that's with a Tribal member hunt in 5ab. Oh well. Try again next year.


  2. I once hit a doe instead of the buck. I self reported, met up with G&F who did the same thing, written warning and confiscation of the deer. The only downside was that I was in an area where there was a lake nearby. Since my hunt was over I decided to due some trout fishing. Lo and behold about an hour later I see the same GF Ranger checking fishing licenses. The deer I had shot about 2 hours before was still rolling around in the back of his vehicle. It was fairly warm that day so I questioned myself, does the meat actually make it to a donation/processing place or?

    A few more yards?  I thought you were a traditional bow hunter?  

    That's correct he needed to continue feeding the direction he was headed. This would have put him inside 40 from where I was set up. 40yds is the farthest I'll take a shot at. 


  4. Rut is going strong. Took this picture today at 235 yds away. I got to 65 yds, clear line of site a few more yds and I would have sent it. There was a second buck as well. As soon as I'm getting ready to draw back a doe appears, I tell you what I've never heard bucks and does make the noises they made today. Both bucks turned opposite direction and went crazy straight for the doe. Seen 4 bucks today. Heading out again tomorrow. 40 yds is my max ill shoot with my longbow. Hope to get it done tomorrow.
