Noland Outdoors

Well something just felt right about today so I took off and went hunting this morning.  My instinct proved true as I was able to arrow this nice 5 pt. buck.  I was really fortunate to get a shot at him because I was no more than a minute or so from lowering my bow and climbing down from my perch.  The cold east wind and the sub freezing temps was getting me chilled and I was set on climbing down at 9:30am, which is when I shot him.   I saw him coming down the trail, checking a scrape line as he came.  I arrowed him at 15 steps, hitting him a little back but not too bad.  It was a tough tracking job because the exit hole was a little back but I found him an hour later and 300 yards away.  All-in-all a good hunt on a good morning.  Man, I love this sport.
