Title: 1st trad kill EVER and its with a bow i made!!
Post by: Badwithabow on October 18, 2010, 11:21:00 PM

1st thanks APEX and Kenny!!! you guys made this possible....ok now the fun

Ok so i had deer in my honey hole starting at 6pm kinda crazy no shots just one lil thing after another. Then i spot this deer feedin out in front while watching her i hear deer coming in from my 3 oclock kinda spooked running. Big doe comes right in catches my trail. While me and her are having a stand off lil one here is coming straight to her from my 12 oclock well i decide as dark as it is i don't have time for this game anymore i find where she is gonna hit an opening i have, she hits it i draw anchor and let it go.

Shooting my self made bow 50@28 with a full length 55/75 w tree shark up front

Shot was 15yards i was 20 ft up a tree
and i had no clue she was quartering to me it was late i shot i thought she was broad side... i was concentrating so much on tryin to pick a spot on a solid black deer body i didn't couldn't tell she was quartering at all.

here is impact.
