Here is the picture I think turned out best.  I am hunting next week with Ray Hammond and hope that my second trad harvest will be a little more conventional than my first. Thanks again guys for all the feedback.

Smart move taking that buck, as he would have fallen prey to coyotes at any moment were he here in TX. A far worse but natural end in the big cycle of life. Next time take 3 arrows!

Please let us know how the venison turns out.

I had something similar myself this year.  True hunters who truly love the spirit of animals and nature are defined during moments like this.   :thumbsup:   Joe

While I too I am glad you ended the little buck's suffering. I feel I have to say this because I keep seeing threads like this. There is nothing wrong with either choice to be made concerning an injured deer. It's totally a personal decision. Either way the deer is not wasted. Nothing goes to waste in nature. In fact it is entirely within the realm of possibility that the little buck could have survived into maturity and even become a nontypical monster buck. Still like the others I'll indeed tell you, Well done!
