Title: First Primitive harvest 7pt (lost souls)
Post by: straightarrow on October 23, 2010, 12:09:24 am

I just started building bows in Dec 2009. Since I was very young I always wanted to build a bow and harvest a deer. Today my dreams were answered. The osage character bow "lost souls" was my first shooter bow. It was named after a close friend that died of cancer and the loss of my unborn child. I finished the bow on the same day these events occured....In fact i finished the bow to keep my mind off things. I choose to hunt with this bow because it was the heaviest bow I made and shot the best. (75#@27").

So there I was.............6:40 p.m.....5 yards broad side.....double lung.....no track

I am sooooooooo happy!!! Not the biggest buck I ever shot but definatly my biggest accomplishment yet.

Thank You Lowell and Kolton for the compliments. Thank You Pappy...it was a double lung shot (pass thru) just missed the top of the heart. It only ran about 50 yards and he was down. Thank You GregB...it was special to me

That deer was meant for you. The title lost souls is good, but the lost ones came home

Thank You nugget, predatorcaller, and Big A........everything feel into place I was very dedicated and determined to harvest something with this bow. I was going for at least a doe and turned out to be a buck which made it even better.

Meat with a stick you fashioned-- that's a man's accompishment in my book. 

Big Brother can try to take away the guns but how will he stiffle the man who can whittle a stick into an effective weapon.   Congrats.
