Congrats - what a nice fat doe and some pretty hunting country! I vividly remember my first and it was only 49 years ago.

That is so cool.
Is that the arrow going out behind her about 8 feet back?

Roy I don't think so; I am up in the tree with the deer underneath it, I hit her in the left shoulder and it came out the right one. I think the angle was pretty shallow because I was only about 10 feet up, so her body is hiding the arrow. Or it may have passed thru already?
I am not a huge fan of technology but it is pretty cool to have my first bow kill recorded. I think I will make a little collage of photos with that one included and my busted arrow mounted below!

Ok..
I made the picture bigger for you.
It's easy to do.
You posted a thumbnail picture, which is fine.
After you select your picture from your PC or phone, just to the right of the little window where the picture name appears, click ( Insert Attachment 1 ). That will make the picture full size in your post.

Roy thanks for fixing my pictures, not sure why I have so much trouble with them!
This successful shot was all the sweeter, as the day before I pulled the trigger on a nice BW PL long bow I saw on RMS gear; as I was buying it I was thinking good job moron, you never even killed anything yet but you need another bow?

Nice story. Great to see you wanted to see this thru with your bow even though rifle season allowed you an easier choice. Took 14 years for my first archery deer.

Great feeling, isn't it? I hunted with a bow during my "rifle tag" hunt.
