Thanks everyone.This deer is pretty special to me.Not because of the size of his rack.That dosent hurt any.   :D    The main reason he is so special is because of where he came from.Like I said this farm has been in our family since 1919 when it was bought by my great grandfather.This is actualy the first deer I have ever killed on this farm.I use to hunt it alot when I was a kid.I would get up every sat. and walk out back to hunt deer.I guess hunting is not a good description.Spooking the few deer I actualy seen would be a better description.At that time there was not many deer around, and just seeing a deer track was something to talk about.There was a steep learning curve since no one in my family knew much about deer hunting.Still to this day Tracy and I are the only bow hunters.Between my lack of experience and only seeing a deer or two all season.I soon found greener pastures to hunt.It has just been the last few years that I have started deer hunting here again.We always just rabbit and squirrel hunt here.The small woods next to where I shot the deer, is only about 50 yards from where the house stood that I grew up in.The house is no longer there.

I hit that first buck this year in the liver and clipped one lung, the trail on one side looked like yours and the other side was spraying BIGTIME. Congrats again. thats a nice one.

Nice one Bill.  Please tell me that you were using the VPA terminator B/H, since I just ordered some from you, lol. Haven't had a chance to use mine yet.
