Title: I have had an awesome season in South GA!!! (pics)
Post by: Hogdgz on December 20, 2009, 10:37:00 AM
It has been a great year for me this year. Last year I hunted with the compound and my Black Widow recurve. Sold my compound and have been trad only this year. Hunting has been hard, but I put in alot of hours on the stand and scouting and it has realy paid off. These pics are from this season in South Ga.
 
Black Widow SAX 53@28 and GT traditional with 2 blade magnus, 100 grain brass insert, total arrow weight of 550 grains. I have had pass throughs on everything I shot this year.

Thanks everyone for all the comments. I have been blessed with plenty of meat, and me and my wife shouldn't starve this winter. We have been eating deer meat about 2-3 times a week.

I had the good fortune to have met Chase almost two years ago at the TBG Chickahatchee hunt, when he was just looking to go trad... So, it is a testament to a work ethic and determination on his part to have a season like this... Well done Chase!!!

There are areas in GA where deer do get big. I have killed several bucks in the past that weighed over 200-225 pounds. The biggest doe I have killed in Ga was at the private plantation I use to work at and she weighed around 150#'s.
Thanks everyone for all the comments and a Merry Christmas to everyone.
