That is great!!!! Stick with it friend, I'm certain you'll have many more stories to come.
 Funny coincidence, my first trad deer was a button buck, taken with a 50# Bear Black Panther Hunter, cedar arrow and a Magnus 2 blade glue on, next to a corn field!!!!    :bigsmyl:   I bet your still smiling.   ;)

Thank you for the kind encouragement , all of you. My next attempt will be with a Hickory long bow, I purchased in the spring. I am a better shot with the longbow than the recurve so I am excited at getting a shot with it.

Cold snap has hit PA. I expect great movement the next few days , praying for an opportunity to take one with the long bow between Thursday and Saturday evening now.
