First post and first trad kill
« on: September 24, 2012, 10:41:00 PM »
Hope this works.
 

Just joined the site but have been lurking/learning from it for a while. Anyway, I got pretty lucky the other evening. Been trying to make the transition from the compound for a while now and this is the first year i've felt confident enough to take my recurve hunting. Saturday was opening day here in TN and I decided to go for it and take the recurve. As luck would have it this guy walked within 5 yds of my tree. Definately boosted my confidence. I think I might sell the wheel bow.

Very cool. It is hard to tell who is more excited, you or your "helper". Good job.

Very nice deer and getting him that close is a feat that was rewarded.  I haven't had the enjoyment of trying to pick a spot on a deer at 5 yards!

I'd say you are hooked now and to put the compound under lock and key (like mine).
