First deer with recurve...FINALLY!
« on: October 08, 2008, 09:30:00 PM »
After three years I was really doubting that I wouldn't go back to wheels. I have missed a bunch and I wounded one Sat. This evening it finaaly came together.

Great job! After missing the last two hogs I shot at, I was thinking how easy those shots would have been with my compound. I switched back to my Hatfield recurve and shot a "robin hood" with my third practice shot!
Confidence back, bring on the hogs and deer!
Congratulations on a great kill!

Congrats on the nice doe, great shot!  Looks like she went down in a creek bed?  Enjoy the rest of the season.  Joe
