For those with decoys now is the time. I’ve been using a single buck decoy on the edge of a food plot and have had 7 different bucks within 10 yrds since Sun a.m. This is the only year so far that I’ve got nothing but positive results from does, fawns and bucks. Yeah, I’m knocking on wood as I type.

Decoy time

I agree coppertop, I was using a decoy last night and got a shot on a good one. Left him overnight, going back this morning to check things out with good light. If it wasn’t for my decoy I would never have even seen this deer. He made a beline for my decoy as I was getting out of the tree. I got a 15 yard shot on him just before he creamed my decoy!!! It was awesome!!

Good luck Muskyman!!!

He was quartering away from me pretty hard. I tried to tuck it in behind his last rib and drive it up through everything. I released the arrow and it went a little bit higher than I wanted but I got a total pass through, with the arrow coming out somewhere in the front of the deer. I think I clipped 1 lung and it come out high on his chest. I just can’t believe it didn’t take out major organs or arteries? I think it was the deer on the right in this pic. Not sure because it happened so quickly I didn’t have much time to study the rack.
