My brother David (Whitey the editor of Primal Dreams) took this buck on our land. He filmed him two years ago, I found his shed this past spring, and also filmed him in velvet this past summer. About 24 inches wide inside. It was a perfect heart shot at 12 yards using the Schafer bow he bought from Joe Lasch at Comptons. Buck was 5 1/2 years old. It came in following a doe. 215 # field dressed.

My brother David took the buck from my stand. His comments were, "Nicely sweet!"

I took this coyote out of the same tree about 3 weeks later. He came by moving some deer, looked at me, then coninued past on a trot at 17 yards. The lung shot resulted in the first animal I took with this bow I made for myself.

Thanks guys. Even though we were both dreaming about that buck, I am glad my brother got him. He has been filming a lot and it has been a few years since he has taken a buck.
herkimerhunter, I know what you mean about coyotes. I have been luck enough to take 5 coyotes with my recurve over the years. Here are a couple pics of them.

Nice work, Mitten boys.  Sunday AM here in Nebraska there was a 1/4" ice on everything, and then just before daybreak the snow came.  Tons of waterfowl on the river, at times the cresendo was so loud it was hard to think.  Canadians cornshucking just over treetop level even spooked a couple does big time (they were already wired because of the ice dropping from the trees as the wind picked up).  It was a gorgeous morning to be on stand and when this big doe came filtering through the Platte River bottom timber, it was time to fill one of my antlerless tags.  11 yard heart shot, 45 yard recovery, Pronghorn longbow, Woodsman head, Sitka Gear.

just a little weather contrast from where warybuck and I were hunting this past weekend. that looks painfully cold.. nice shooting WB and a tasty reward.


it was perfect weather on the georgia coast
   
   


how I got there...
     

and what I had to find room for in the boat on the way home...

A day to get in touch with the past.  While I was dragging out a deer I had taken with a homemade broadhead, I found a very unusual arrowhead.  It has two perfect notches on one side.  There purpose I have know idea.  What would we give to know the story behind the arrowheads we find?
