First Trad Buck
« on: December 07, 2005, 09:22:00 AM »
I finally shot my first traditional buck after 3 years last night.  I headed for the woods right after school and got set up in my treestand.  He came in with another little buck around 4:00 pm. at about 12 yards.  Double lung shot and he went 60 yards.

I am shooting a ChekMate Hunter II 51# @ 28" with a 29" 2016 and a 140gr. Journeyman 2 blade head.

Awesome, Ron! Congratulations!   :thumbsup:
Someday you and I will take the Great Hart by our own skill alone, and with an arrow. And then the Little Gods of the Woods will chuckle and rub their hands and say, "Look, Brothers. An Archer! The Old Times are not altogether gone!"

To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.
