Halloween buck
« on: November 01, 2024, 07:36:06 AM »
I had a little luck yesterday morning hunting on our farm yesterday.  This 11 point buck came in at 7:35 and presented a slightly quartering away shot.  The homemade douglas fir arrow passed through both lungs and resulted in a short recovery.  I spent the day processing the meat.  It took 2 glasses of Wild Turkey and a long hot tub session to heal up a little.

I happened to get a trail camera photo of the buck just seconds before the shot.  The photo looks pretty dark, but it was 20 minutes after legal shooting light.  I should have mentioned that I used my 62", 50 pound Wild Horse Creek Destiny longbow.

Oh the agony of processing :biglaugh:  But nothing that a few glasses of bourbon can't fix for sure.  Congratulations on a great deer.
