You went to the wrong college ! So with my Kansas trip coming in two weeks, the worst enemy to a bow hunter other than the wrong wind is a lack of confidence. So this morning I recreated my shot distance and put all my bulky hunting clothes on because I had noticed the bowstring slap my clothing on my left arm on my miss yesterday. First shot with the same arrow and broadhead and …… dead nuts even with the recreated bow string/clothing slap. I chalked this one up to my neck gator. We had a brief rain event as I was getting into my evening sit so I put on my neck gator to keep rain from going down my neck. When I drew on the deer yesterday, I never got comfortable with my anchor point because of the restricting gator. When I was at full draw I pulled it down as far as I could with my release hand but it never was out of the way. Lesson learned. Going to Cabelas to look for a better idea. Maybe a lighter turtleneck?
what part of the water column were the biters coming from? My buddy caught one 120’ down and the 100’ down on riggers. I thought maybe he was fishing below the fish by targeting the deep marks.
