Old Fox gets a deer! Pic on page 2
« on: October 31, 2012, 09:35:00 PM »
I have a Shrew Hill I have named Old Fox.  We ahve hunted hard together and had a few close encounters with some large deer this year, but just could not put it all together.  Well, tonight a little 4 point walked by a little too close and I used one of my buck tags on him.  

I was sitting against a large red oak tree with nothing in front of me.  I jsut sit very still.  At 6pm, he walked around my area and eventually 17 yards to my left quarting sharply I let my arrow fly.  My Shrew Hill is 49 pounds at 28 inches, and 68 inches long.  He never heard the bow or the arrow.  I love shooting Hill style bows!

I will get pics up when I can, photo bucket and I just do not get along.

Bob.

I thought you meant the archer was an Old Fox, not the bow!. Congratulations either way!

One of my favorite parts of hunting is seeing stuff that have no idea i am there.

Here's Bob with his buck taken with his Shrew Hill "Old Fox"
