Well today Mike (aka mikaelj on WA)went to the blind hoping to get him his first bow bird.First let me tell you all about the ridge we set up on to bow hunt,we have a feedrer out all year until about a month before the season opens,they roost another ridge over and come down to ours on their way to some fields, but with the feeder out until right before season when they hit our ridge they hang out long enough for us to work them
Well today we had 4 good shooters come in but they stayed out of range (so Mike thought) then some jakes come in and he thought could get some practice on 1 of them, he released the string and nailed him, sad part was we couldn't find him the even sadder news he was standing the same place those toms were standing, oh well still a good day we will get them next time.
I hadn't carried a weapon (except for vid cam) to the woods yet but that's gonna change SOON.
