New bow = new buck
« on: October 05, 2009, 03:53:00 PM »
On Friday Oct 2, I took this buck from the same stand that I took the buck on right of my AVATAR. He came through about 200 yards from a cut wheat field. It was raining off and on. The pass through shot did a perfect job with WW Elite. He went down insight. I'm really liking the bow I made. It draws 61# and my arrows weigh over 700 gr. I hope you all have good luck with your hunts. Mike

That is a really unique white-tail Mike.  The left side almost looks like a mulie rack the way it forks.  Very nice deer congrats man!!    :thumbsup:

Wow! You have to love those big Illinois deer. Congratulations! Taking game with a bow you made must be a big thrill. That is a great looking buck and a beautiful bow.

Congratulations on both Mike!
