I can build a hunting bow!!
« on: January 21, 2018, 07:32:00 PM »
It’s been a rough season with a couple not so stellar shots.
But this evening I officially took a young doe with the first bow I built!!

Not the biggest deer in the woods, but will always be special to me.

Outstanding. Might be the best venison you ever ate.

Well done sir!!
My first Trad deer was with a bow I made. You’ll never forget that feeling!
