Hero shot of my 4x4 Wyoming Mule Deer. DIY fully unguided.  Long story short...hunt included a 1/2 mile sprint thru deadfalls headstrong into the timber the moose came from before. I let eleven does pass along with two 2x2's in velvet. Picked my spot at 30 yards, I honestly do not remember drawing reaching anchor or the release. Shot was from the ground at 13 FEET, all I remember seeing is my white nock hitting exactly what I was focused on. Double lung, busted arrow and 250# of awesomeness before me. I have experienced ground shrinkage before, but this one just kept getting bigger the closer I got.

My favorite from October 1, 2002. My hunting partner Luke Woodruff (the Ursus) killed this goat after I drove it to him. There was another photo that I took that was featured in a Traditional Bowhunter story by Steve Hohensee.

Two of my favorites - First was moments after the lifelong dream of taking a color phase bear was fulfilled and the pict was actually taken by Russell Thornberry whom I was hunting with.

The second was from a few years back when I did a lot of turkey hunting. My best buddy called it in to about 10 yards for me.
