1st trad kill EVER and its with a bow i made!!
« on: October 18, 2010, 11:09:00 PM »
Ok so i had deer in my honey hole starting at 6pm kinda crazy no shots just one lil thing after another. Then i spot this deer feedin out in front while watching her i hear deer coming in from my 3 oclock kinda spooked running. Big doe comes right in catches my trail. While me and her are having a stand off lil one here is coming straight to her from my 12 oclock well i decide as dark as it is i don't have time for this game anymore i find where she is gonna hit an opening i have, she hits it i draw anchor and let it go.

Shooting my self made bow 50@28 with a full length 55/75 w tree shark up front

Shot was 15yards i was 20 ft up a tree
and i had no clue she was quartering to me it was pretty dark when i shot i thought she was broad side... i was concentrating so much on tryin to pick a spot on a solid black deer body i didn't couldn't tell how she was facing.

here is impact.
 

trailing shots
 
 

hero pic TRAD KILL number 1 with a bow I made!!! couldn't be more proud! she's not all that small i'm just that big  ;)  aim small miss small.
 


Entrance and exit shots... and thats it...

Super nice accomplishment congratulations!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

That has to be like taking a trophy trout with flies you tied yourself!

I have a tough time shooting let alone building!

Congrats to you!!!
