My first kill with the longbow......(pics added)
« on: September 13, 2007, 07:43:00 AM »
I harvested my first game with the longbow last evening. 23 yards quartering away. As soon as the wife gets up and e-mails me the pictures I will post and give the whole story.... It was a great night in the woods.

Congrats, Slayer!  :)  Now you earned that handle, eh? Very cool.

I remember my first to this day... bigger rush than any other deer in my life...rifle, handgun or compound bow.  You're hooked now dude!  :)

Congrats Slayer!!! Looking forward to the pictures and the story!!!!
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.

Ah sweet success.  Congrats!

I guess you're gonna make us wait for the pics to see what sort of game you took.
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Its been a long day. I finally have my pictures. I'll post the pictures first and then tell the story. Here she is. I just picked up traditional equipment a little over a year ago. I have practiced relentlessley almost everyday for the past year. I guess it finally paid off.
