Wayto go Bill. I remember my first recurve deer. A button buck on the last day of NY archery in 1993!!! It was my second bow kill ever and only the 4th deer I'd ever killed I think. Overthe years I've killed a few, and the best shots I've made, I often can't remember even drawing the bow. Like you said, it just happens. It's the only time I think I shoot truly instinctively. I've missed many deer too, and almost always, I can remember thinking during the shot. Where to aim, pick a spot, boy that's a nice buck, he's so close I can't miss, etc. You done good.

Congratulations my friend. Now that you know what it feels like to get one this way, you'll be an animal. Next up...the "A" or the "Snake"?

And oh yeah 1965 what a good year!

Migrane Bill,  :laughing:  

that is one serioius Cheshire Cat smile you got going on there, brother!

That is so very cool... I can feel your excitement as I read your tale. Don't dare apologize for length...I didn't want the story to end!

Next year at B'mo, skip the handshake, I'm going for a bear (Bear) hug!   :)  

Congrats, man! Trophy indeed...they all are!
