They recieved a full month to scare them to high heaven so by the time my turn was up there was not a one in sight. Hopfully with a good salt lick and my nice trail cam, I can have my eye on my trophy early and have a great chance in sharing in a great experience that I have wanted to hack with my husband for a long time. I would love to hear any first year bow hunting stories, so I can be prepared. Good luck
