October 11-14 Hunt |

So, this past weekend I went bow hunting in St. |
|
Francisville. The first day of the hunt my dad killed a 8 pt. I |
|
was happy for him as this was his first hunt after quadruple |
|
bypass back in April. Then the next morning as daylight is upon |
|
me I get a text " I got a pig" so I�m sitting here thinking I |
|
have been Bow hunting for a few years now with no luck and here |
|
he comes been in the stand for a total of about 45 minutes and |
|
has two animals on the ground. He must have a horse shoe up his |
|
butt. |
|
So that afternoon I decide to hunt in the back of a food |
|
plot on the ground in a pop up blind that my padnuh had over |
|
there. ITS HOTT. and every piece of camo I own is long sleeve. |
|
so I�m sweating like there is no tomorrow. I drag that popup |
|
blind about 400 yds into the woods and set it up and get in it. |
|
By this time I�m soaking wet with sweat. So I reach in my bag |
|
and grab 3 things 1. my Thermacell 2. My essence of fall cover |
|
scent. and 3 my Rac-em-Bac Persimmon preloaded scent arrowheads. |
|
I tried to shoot out the arrowhead out of the pop up blind and |
|
realized that even kneeling down I�m too tall to make a shot, So |
|
i moved everything outside of the popup stood up shot my |
|
RacEmBac arrowhead into the ground about 40 yards away, left the |
|
door open and looked through the blind. |
|
After about an hour I started to dry off and to my surprise |
|
i saw a doe out in the middle of the food plot. The RacEmBac |
|
def. did the trick she didn�t smell me at all. She stayed about |
|
60 yards away. Then 2 young 8 pts came out too far to shoot. I'm |
|
loving all the action going on!!!! even though i hadn�t though |
|
about how i was gonna creep around the popup blind to get a shot |
|
off. Then I had to think fast because I see the deer run off and |
|
about an 80lb sow come running out of the woods right to the |
|
scented arrow. She was rooting up the food plot. I very quietly |
|
grabbed my grimreaper whitetail special and bow, creeped around |
|
the popup very quietly, glassed the porker at 36 yards quartered |
|
away, drew back and let her have it. She ran off and it looked |
|
like she was carrying a paint brush of blood through the woods. |
|
She ran about a total of 45 yards right into the woods and fell |
|
down a little bottom. I have attached a few pictures for your |
|
viewing pleasure. |

Thats some good stuff man. Never heard of these scent loaded |
|
arrow heads, might have to give them a look-see. You got some |
|
linkage for them? |
