I just believe I went this long before getting a deer. Almost 2 months with no deer. Feels good to get one... Hopefully the rain will hold out for a morning hunt.

Thanx Mike, That arrow was My first try at fletching wrapping. I did glue them on first.

I can't imagine a greater feeling than to take game with a bow you made yourself.  Way to go.

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.
