Title: Finally.......My first Deer with Trad Gear!
Post by: LoneWolf73 on October 09, 2008, 06:52:00 PM
After years of Hunting with Trad Gear I finally shot my first this morning. I shot it from 20 feet up at about 14 yards. It was a steep angle that penetrated just above the shoulder into the heart. It still ran 70 yards along the ridge and stumbled down the hill another 30 yards. I was using my Voodoo Kustom Longbow (62#) and Carbon Express 350's pointed with Simmons 160 Landsharks. Feels good when everything comes together! Thanks for letting me share the moment.

You will be glad you took the time to create such a Great Picture in the years to come. A fitting memorial to the hard work you put in. Glad it finally came together for you. Now go out and do it again.
