Here is the button buck I got on October 30th.  Zwickey 2-blade on a cedar arrow went right through from 14 yards.  He was down in less than 20 seconds.  My second deer this season.  I love the stick and string.

Shot him at 7 yards as he came to my decoy. My first off the ground. It was a rush to say the least. Big body. Blacktail Bow, Magnus two blade.

It was a beautiful morning in the woods.  Caught this guy checking a scrape about 7:45.
 
Took this doe halloween evening.  It's been a great season.

Ok, I was in my stand by 5:00 AM. The weather was great and the sky was clear. I picked this stand from seeing a deer walking that way Yesterday Morning. As I was sitting there I saw a buck come in and turned the other way. I hit the can & my grunt tube. The Buck started to walk back to me. The Buck then turned again and walked off.

About 7:30 Am I was thinking of going to a scrape, then I saw it or them I should say. They came walking in slowly and when the first one came to my stand, I drew, came to anchor, the deer looked at me and I loosed a arrow in to it. I clean pass thu.

It was a BB, and I honored Him well. Here is the pic of me and My Deer & the arrow.

Huckbuck, what bow did you take him with?  I like the looks of it.

James, it's a Striker Stinger by Rick Ellis. Great shooting bows. I tried several bows
when making the switch from recurves to longbows and this is the only longbow I could shoot as well as my recurves.

First ever Trad deer kill for me!  I got a bit nervous and didn't make a perfect shot, but perfection comes with experience I suppose.

I took her with an early 1970's Bear Kodiak Magnum #45, with 150G WW broad heads.

I got this doe this morning. I had a less than perfect hit and no blood. I finally found her after 3 hours by searching likely escape routes. I used a Great Northern Fireball 52#@28" a 145 gr. Eclipse broadhead on a larch shaft for a total arrow weight of 685 gr.

Nice job, Jack.  She has an expressive face.  She looks like a wall mount right there in your hands.

I just got back after crossing paths with this guy here.  I hunted an area for 14 days and only saw does,spikes and small 4-6 pointers.  I held off shooting even though my vacation was ending in 2 days.  Then 2 nights ago I see this buck here for the first time even though I've been thru the area.  Last night I set up just right for him.  A nice deer and thanks to him for the sacrifice.

Thanks, he's a little diffrent.  I wish I could have taken him out of the truck for a photo, but there's no way I was getting him back in.

I used my Silvertip and a Magnus Stinger 150 Buzzcut broadhead to take this whitetail this evening. Very large bodied whitetail for a Texas deer. Probably the largest bodied deer I have ever taken.
