Way to stick with it.  Death and the life it provides is rarely pretty.  It happens sometimes.  Once again, good job being determined and geting it done.  Beter you are eating it than the yotes.  God Bless

Good job on a strong finish! I appreciate you telling the story that will help the new guys like me.  When I finally get one down, I will remember to stick it again.  Way to follow through!

Big-time congrats on your first kill, and for doing everything necessary to bring the hunt to a conclusion.  Way to "fight the fight"!

Enjoy those backstraps!

Excellent job on sticking with it til the end. My first trad deer was a doe with my recurve a few years ago and it was a similar story.

First off, congratulations!  Ice breaker for sure!  

Persistence doesn't always pay off, but more often then not it does... and that is in every aspect of our lives not just hunting...

Wishing you many more successful hunts to come!

I picked up a new saying on a hunt recently,
"Dead is good deader is better"
I think a back up arrow is never a bad idea. Glad you stuck with it and found her well done, and cute dog  :)
