I got tired of Hiding in the bushes when a 5x4 Buck and other walked by my ground blind at about 5 yards. Stopped and looked in and went on their Merry way. I was across about 100 yards opposite the Ground Blind in the sage Brush. Yesterday, They were scared of the Blind. . I got fed up and tried to stalk the Muleys in the Cut Alfalfa Field but a Doe saw me and the Entire Herd was on Alert. So I walked like normal through the Field to calm the herd down. i decided to head back to the ambush spot to catch some stragglers passing bye. before I got there I observed about 6 Does and a Buck at the rear making their way down the Hill toward the Alfalfa find. I had no choice but to squat down behind a Wind Row of Alfalfa that was about 8 inches high. ( I Hope my trophy Blend "Sage" Scent does it magic!) I changed position and Knelt and stayed Still. The does neared me. I slowly Raised my Range Finder and slowly Ranged them. The lead doe was at 20 yards and moving in toward me!. She and the others kept trying to Smell me But they couldn't get a Scent. The Wind was blowing right at them. Finally, the Buck came up behind the does and looked my Way. I slowly ranged him at 50 yards exactly. He also tried to wind me, But to no avail. I could see that he had Velvet 3x3 plus 2 Eye Guards over 1 inch. Which makes him a legal 4x4 in Washington State. I Slowly raised my Nocked Bow and set the Vital Bow gear slider sight to the 50 yard Pin. As I raised it toward him. he snorted and turned away slightly quartering. As th does started to leave. The Buck stopped to look at them. I placed the 50 yard Pin directly on the Bucks left front Shoulder Low. RELEASE!............THWACK!. He High Kicks and takes off away from me. he Goes about 45 yards and tumbles to the ground and rolls. BUCK DOWN, BUCK DOWN!. I only had about 30 minutes of legal hunting time left. So hurried and called some friend to help me with the transport. So I wasn't able to get good pics until I got him back to the garage. The Grim Reaper did it job. Starrflight Fobs Guiding the HADES like a Deadly Tomahawk Missile. Mossy oak Camo Worked great out in the Open Alfalfa Field and Trophy Blend Deer scent Did magic on the noses of the Muleys.They couldn't smell me, So I wasn't a threat. Giving me enough time to lay some Brown down!. Pass through at 50 Yards. I will post the bow cam kill shot in a few day.

here's the Bow cam Video from the Muley kill. Its nothing Fancy and I'm no editing pro. But i think you folks will enjoy the vid. I was cleared by my local Game Warden to have the cam on my bow. He inspected it to make sure there was no laser aiming device on it and that it was only for filming. So I'm legal. The sound you hear is the Vibration from the rising transferring to the bow cam waterproof enclosure. This was a 50 yard shot and the Buck never heard the shot until the Grim Reaper hades was ripping through him.
