first deer of season
« on: October 07, 2009, 10:35:28 pm »
I've never posted before, but I've enjoyed seeing the deer you all have taken.  Here is my first deer of the season taken with a hickory bow I made 3-4 yrs. ago.  It's 50lbs. at 27 in.  I'm going to try to post a picture, hope it works.

Congratulations! Can't beat the feeling of hunting with a weapon you made with your own hands! ;)

Thanks, its the first for this season but that bow has taken 2 other deer.If it quits raining I might be able to try for another.My brother shot a doe this morning and could not find it before the rain.He says he shot it through the chest and it actually bounded to his tree and smelled the ground where his bow was on the ground and when it left he could not get another arrow in it.I think he may have shot a little high.

I hope that did not sound boastful what I meant to say is I have been  lucky enough to take 2 other deer with that bow and hopefully a couple more.

thanks,I used zwicky 2 blade and yes it was a pass through but the arrow stayed in her, so it made it hard to track,but she only went maybe 70 yards.
