I wanted to experience a different way of hunting. I was starting to worry about my knee. I was a little bit nervous about my bow. I didn't want to go after a doe; I wanted a buck. Just because there's a fence doesn't mean it's a property line. I shot six inches over this buck's back. I was jacked after getting my first mule deer. I got meat, bone, and memories from this trip.
