Shortest bow hunting season of my life!!!

Well, this was the shortest bow hunting season if my life! :smiley_bril:
I purchased the deer tag, last night from Walmart, then went to the Ohio Theater for the Halloween Bash (which was awesome!) and decided to get up early and go climb the same tree that I killed my buck out if last year.

As it turns out, I wasn't in the tree for more than 30 minutes, when I heard something behind me. I turned to see a small 6 point buck, so I picked up my bow and waited for him to walk by. As he walked to within 14 yards, I drew my bow, placed the sight pin behind his shoulder and released the arrow.

At the shot, the buck ran approximately 50 yards and dropped over dead! :smiley_dead:
The amazing part of this hunt, other than being so short, was... This is the same tree that I shot my buck from last year, the same location/distance where I shot the buck last year and this buck ran to the same exact spot where the buck from last year died and that was also his final resting place. Wow!
