I would post a pic but all of my pictures from back then were destroyed in a home fire 14 years ago.

My first big game was a Doe taken with my 45# Bear Super Grizly in 1983.

The thing I like is that you have the simplest bows to the super fancy, all dropping game just the same.  Mountain hunts to backyards.
Excellent.

First hour of hunting trad. She looked at me several times but was never spooked, kept eating beech nuts. Meant to be or just another benefit of hunting big woods deer. Could have been both.

Sorry no trad gear in the pic. I had already changed clothes and just arrived home from my hunting area. My wife had to get a pic right away. I'm glad she did. Shot this little 8 point with a 59# Centaur.

First trad kill from 2003 I believe. I was sitting behind a big downed whiteoak tree log next to a very small food plot Lowebow had put in on his farm. Never forget that day as I watched those big fletchings spinning toward the vitals of my first ever shot at big game animal. Then to watch them disappear as they zipped through her. It all seemed like it was in slow motion. The image is still burned in my mind and the fire was lit.

My first trad kill (not including grouse and squirrels and such)

Ground blind from about 25 yds.
Thunder Mt. Coyote by Jerry Barr
I will remember it for a long time like it was yesterday.  My hunting buddy's farm land, and strutting birds all around.  They saw me move my bow into position and got antsy....started to move away but this guy got one last strut in on his way out.  I can still see that arrow headed for the spot my eye was looking at....what a morning it was!
