Centex,
Same thing happened to me. You can't hardly use anything but two blade heads and you need to be real careful putting them in the quiver. that soft leather cuts pretty easy.

I remember that hat. Hope to see it soon.  :)

Congrats Dave. Those pictures remind me of seeing hanging deer when I was a kid huntin' with my Dad in Laurel Springs, NC. A local small motel had a second level. You would always see deer hanging from the second story walkway railing by afternoon on opening day. Sadly those days are past and the motel is no there more.

Thanks everyone, I normally hunt more mature bucks, but with little time to hunt this year, I couldn't pass him up. Their all a trophy with a trad bow! Back to hunting for that elusive Doe from the ground. Hope you all have a great season and God bless.

Congrats Jason.  Looks like the Hill bows are really taking the game this year.  Hopefully I'll be able to add to the pics before end of season.

Fine looking doe Jason!! Congrats  :thumbsup:

I had the 7 Lakes in hand tonight with two deer behind me at 20 feet. Hunting from the ground. The honeysuckle kept me from shooting 'cause it was waaaaay thick. I could only see their feet and glimpses of them. I think it was two doe, but not sure. Funny thing is they were straight downwind of me and never blew, snorted, ran, stomped, or anything except meandered along their merry way at a slow pace.


Tomorrow....you're only a day away.  :)

Nice mature whitetail Jason. Big congrats on your first trad kill. The quietness of the hill bow is a big plus. Enjoy the euphoric feeling.......you deserve it!

I've decided even in a population control area, the little ones aren't worth the effort.  Not much meat by the time all was said and done with this little one...

 

But still, first thing in the freezer that wasn't a squirrel with a hill bow.  Not the prettiest shot ever made, but the deer was recovered so all is well.  Feeling good about the next few weeks though....
