My First Trad deer! Updated w/story + pics!
« on: December 03, 2009, 09:15:00 PM »
Everything came together and my first deer with the recurve is down! With four does below me I finally was able to draw and release a beeman ICS hunter carbon arrow tipped with a Muzzy Phantom 100 grn broad head! Talk about sweeeeeet! ;D
Zona Take Down Recurve
58"'amo, 48#@26"
The Whole Story with actual trailcam pics as it happened!
I put out a little feed and set my trailcam on it. A few days later I checked the cam and they were on it the next day! No good tree for a stand so I climbed a hackberry tree.
   
At first light I saw the cam flash. Looked down at the feed and there was a doe.
   

While waiting for a broadside shot a spike came in and the doe ran off.

I slung one right over his back! lol
 
A little later with my arrow still sticking up by the feed, this bunch came in.
   


It took forever for me to get in position to shoot, with all them eyes! Remember I'm standing on this branch! lol  They kept looking up at me!
   
Finally everything was right and I let one fly hitting her high in the spine and she went straight down! I was pumped up!
   
   

Long version and trailcam pics as it was happening on page 3!

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.
