Hunting : Page 318


One of the best known and most competent bow hunters inthe midwest had a 40 yard running shot at a fine buck on oneof these same drives. The arrow couldn't be found but he didnot look too long as he had not the slightest idea that he hadmade a hit, but two days later the drivers stumbled onto thedead deer with his arrow in it just a short distance from wherehe had shot. A regrettable loss of meat, but a trophy obtained.A picture of this hunter and the deer happens to be the onlyarchery deer picture in a fine book, "A History of WisconsinDeer," by Ernest Swift, Wisconsin Conservation Director. Anyarcher who believes that there can't be too many deer shouldread this book. Copies, I believe, are still available from theWisconsin Conservation Department.
