Way to go Eric!!!!

Thanks for sharing the story and pics.  (Well, eventually that is...)

I've come to believe that the keys to shooting well for me are good form, trusting the bow to do all the work, and having the confidence in the bow and myself to remain motionless and relaxed at release until the arrow hits the mark.

Impressive to say the least. Great story and wonderful buck. Hope the back treats you better but what will you do for an encore.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Eric,  You did it right in all respects.  Planned ahead, home made equipment, and made the shot!
This is the way I like it, and love to hear about.
CONGRATULATIONS!  What a buck.
