2nd Chances are always good!!
« on: October 30, 2006, 09:46:00 PM »
Hi all,

If you remember last week I missed a really nice 8 point buck at 7 YARDS!!

Well, today I got a second chance and it turned out very nicely. He's a true 10 pointer with a couple more 1" kickers. This is my first traditional buck and I couldn't be any happier. It took me all day to recover the deer but it was well worth it.

I should mention, I shoot a Ancient Spirits Thunderhawk and my Silverwood arrows.

Joe

Fine looking deer you got there, Joe. Glad everything worked out for you.
