Guess what I get to have for dinner? Two new pics added

Its been a long season and the stars aligned today. Watched two does early in the morning walking away from me then did an about face and dissapeared into the thick stuff. About 45 minutes later when I was busy texting the wife, deer started appearing from every where. Ten does and fawns in total. They split in two groups three stayed to my right feeding and seven started up behind me. The three were mature does and the big group yearlings and this years fawns, they wandered right under my stand one caught me move and they darted off to the north. The three does fed for a half hour 80 yards then bedded. What to do? I weighed my options and noticed one bedded facing me the others away. When i looked at my ladder there was a big tree in between. Well I lowered my bow climbed down and perfect, she was behind a stump, and 40 yards to close. Crawled on my belly to what I thought was a 40 yard shot behind a dead tree and peeked, still bedded. Raised bow, they stood and she took one stomp out from behind stump and I pulled trigger, they took off. Walked over found my bloody arrow and followed the easy blood trail. The rage 2 blade (that I swore would never use but last day of season thought I would do everything different) did its job, perfect double lung at a measured after 45 yards... so my point is tenderloins are marinating!!!!
She was a nice fat healthy doe weighed out at 145lbs. Vortex is two for two in the last two years!


Tagged and hung!

Buddy's boy, first time witnessing feld dressing and skinning, had a blast making his own deer tracks with the legs

Way to go! Sometimes it is good to change things up a bit. I had to laugh some reading about your belly crawl, been there myself.
