Title: First double

Not Primitive Archery related:

Yesterday was opening day of our gun season in Indiana.  I bought a bundle license that allowed me to get one buck and two doe no matter what season.  I already got my buck so all I needed was two doe.  I put my niece's boyfriend in my best stand so I took the stand I have in the valley behind my house.  I had seen 3 doe and 1 buck early but only had a shot at the buck.  At 9:30 the sun was peeking into the valley and it was still foggy.  I heard something to my left and saw a doe coming out of the fog towards me.  There was another one a few yards behind her.  I let the first one get to 20 yards and shot.  She dropped straight to the ground.  The second doe was looking around trying to figure out what happened.  I took the shot at her and she ran 30 yards and piled up.  I center punched her heart.  I was very happy about getting two until we had to drag them out.  They were both healthy.  Now my freezer will be full and I can get back to bow making.

You're right about Thanksgiving Pat.  The kids are spending the day at the grandparents house and the wife has to work.  I'll be home alone so I think I'll BBQ up a big mess of deer and potatoes.  I'll eat until it hurts to breath and then watch some football until I have to leave for work.
