A BEAUTIFUL day for my "first" traditional kill
« on: November 11, 2010, 05:29:00 PM »
I've got some things to get finished around here, but here are the results of an absolutely picture perfect day in the southeast Ohio woods.

I'll be back later this evening with a few more pics............  :bigsmyl:

I'm totally waiting for this one. So far I have loved all the photos you post of your area. This will be great I'm sure.
I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.

Okie.........Dokie......I'm all showered up, after dropping off the "critter" at the processor. I'm gonna take "the better half" out for a "well deserved" supper..........but........I shall return. Until then, this answer's Mike's question as to "which bow" it was taken with.

Hang in there.........I'm starvin !!!!

What a tease...    :saywhat:    Must have hit bone on the way through resulting in arrow damage...? Or was the arrow damage done after complete pass thru?
ahhhhh, a Blacktail kill...got to love it! That sure is a special finish Norm put on that bow...? haha

Don sure has some purty bows. Looks like he learned how to shoot them too! Can't wait to hear the rest of the story.
