First Trad Kill Finally!
« on: November 22, 2016, 11:08:00 AM »
After a long season of carrying my 49# Spirit Longbow to the Illinois timber I finally got an opportunity at a deer, a young spike. I shot him at 15 yards and my 125 grain Woodsman flew through his lungs like butter and I got the full pass through. He took about 3 bounds before falling over dead as stone. Such an amazing feeling. I'm hooked for life!

In the words of my wife when I killed my first deer with my recurve,"you won't be worth a damn now"! She's right Ive been hooked since.
