That close encounter had to be exciting at 3 yards! I went yesterday and saw a doe and two fawns. Doe was not bigger then the fawns.

Pappy:

GregB:

Went yesterday afternoon, and saw the same two does and a fawn as Wednesday. This time I was in the right stand though. I shot at the doe without a fawn at about 12 yards or so. I don't know if I shot high or the doe ducked, but I ended up cutting her across the top of the back. A second arrow at 18 yards fared no better, she ducked and I only had some hair on the shaft. Agony of defeat!

My bow is making a sound like the shaft slapping up against the handle, but I can't see how...I've got a piece of leather that the arrow should be against during the shot.

Pat B:
Greg, I've noticed if I get sloppy with my release I get arrow slap on my bow. 
  You are getting plenty of action. I try to shoot low, especially on spooked deer.     Pat
