I ensure it took a while to improve my skills. I knew this was my chance. So, I quietly went to full draw. I looked through my peep and saw, well nothing. It was still too dark in that head of woods to clearly see the buck. If this buck would stay for a few minutes, there would be enough light through the trees to see his vitals clearly. And, I knew that in that particular location, the wind had a tendency to swirl from time to time.
As I was still at full draw, I moved my eye outside of my peep , so that I could see the buck through my site pins. Then, I slowly looked back through the peep and could see the target… barely. He bolted down the draw and out of sight. I sat for two hours, wondering how this whole story was going to end. During those two hours, I scanned the ground endlessly, hoping to see a bloody arrow. I saw nothing.
How far did he go? Will I ever find him? Finally, I decided to get down and go look. I walked out 20 yards to where I had shot him and I saw my arrow lying on the ground, the arrow shaft and my broadhead half-covered by the forest floor. I picked it up and immediately got some encouragement… bright pink, frothy blood on my fletches. Things were looking up! I followed along the faint blood trail. After yards or so, I reached a small creek that ran through the property.
I was till intently focused on the ground near my feet, checking for any small clue I could find. The blood trail had stopped. I looked up and about 30 yards away, in the creek, was the buck. I held both hands high and thanked the Lord for answering my desperate yet somewhat shallow prayer. The shot turned out to be a double-lung pass through.
We love pass throughs so much, we even made a shirt about them!
