This is probably my favorite, mainly because it's my son with his first deer. I wish we could have gotten him to smile, but I guess I'm the same way.

 

It was taken with his 58" 51# @ 28" Kanati, 1916 arrow with a Woodsman broadhead.
Kanati 58" 44# @ 28" Green glass on a green riser
Bear Kodiak Magnum 52" 45# @ 28"
Bodnik Slick Stick longbow 58" 40# @ 28"
Bodnik Kiowa 52" 45# @ 28"
Kanati 58" 46# @ 28" R.I.P (2007-2015)
Self-made Silk backed Hickory Board bow 67" 49# @ 28"

The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

meathead, that might be my favorite picture on this thread.  The smile on that young man's face is priceless.  

Great eagle picture, Walt.

Buck taken with the first St. Judes Hope bow-Really bad composition-a good example of what not to do when taking a picture.  The antlers blen in with the grass and the coat.  I should have moved him into the field and used some logs to prop him up.

You guys have seen many of mine....here's a few.

I think Walt took this one w/35mm compact.
 

Here's some more in no particular order...

These are just the ones I have on photobucket....I tend to take or have taken as many pics as possible.  I can't imagine anyone not "savoring" the moments, good or bad, they are all precious memories.  Even if they are never seen by others, and most are not "worthy", but all tell a tale to me.  

Again, no particular organization of pics, just some of my faves!
