Took over five years and not once did I consider laying the recurve down. Best sport in the world

An old hand me down recurve sparked the fire, Trad Gang fanned the flames.  There is no stopping now.  Burn baby burn!

Thanks Guys

Yea Corey, it was a couple days after Christmas and there was still a couple inches on the ground in North Alabama. Def makes a great story though. Ha I'm sure a couple inches will turn into a blizzard the more I tell it.

Wooddamon1, it's a Wing "Thunderbird" Late sixties to early seventies. Shoots extremely smooth. My grandad gave it to me.

Details of the hunt: It was around 4:30 in the evening. Doe is coming down the mountain to the bottoms. Walks broadside 20-25 yards in front of stand, and the next thing I knew I was shaking like  crazy and couldn't believe what had happened. Hit her just a lil high and back, but the blood trail was a breeze in the snow.

Very cool indeed!

We all vividly remember our first trad kill...and many of had to enjoy many seasons of hard work to make that happen.

Gotta love it!   :clapper:    :jumper:
