I've been out to my lease between
Fredericksburg and Harper to
bowhunt a couple times but have yet to get a shooter buck within range. We have a decent mature 8 that I've had a couple encounters with at 20 and 30 yards but can't decide whether to take him or not. I'm holding out for something bigger or later in the season to smoke him. Have seen a really nice 10 but has a small body and is a young deer. Hopefully he will make it through the year or at least long enough to breed some does this year.
Stuck a 150-175lb boar this evening. Did not get pics or my arrow back as I caught him a little high and there was not lots of blood to follow. We don't see pigs around here very often and shoot them on site so I did not track him very hard or far. Just wish my arrow had passed through so I could recover it. When I hit him he spun around and I could see the arrow on both sides so maybe I can look for him opening weekend and get my arrow and
broadhead back ($25). Going up for opening weekend for rifle and will try to take more pics and update.
