No Deer Yet....

The other night, Jay shot a doe with his bow. It was deflected by a little twig and didn't hit the deer where it was supposed to. He thinks it may have been a gut shot. Anyway, the arrow was covered in blood up to the feathers. They tracked it for 5-6 hours and by then it was midnight and the little boys were really getting cold and tired so they had to call it a night. Unfortunately, the next morning was opening for gun season so they couldn't go and track more that morning because the deer was on someone else's property and they weren't gonna go and make a huge ruckus and ruin someone's hunt. So Jay is bummed for himself and bummed for the doe, that's not how you want a hunt to end. Maybe he'll get one with a gun we'll have to wait and see.
