First trad kill, FINALLY!!!
« on: June 11, 2014, 12:20:00 PM »
After months of hunting and several misses and blown oppertunities the winds were finally in my favor yesterday! Had some visitors early, but opted to wait for something bigger. At last light a good sized sow gave me a slightly quartered broadside shot at 20 yrds.        This time I was able to remain calm and get off a good shot.  you can see the entry wound, came out of front shoulder on opposite side. Oh, that is my first glass bow too!

Good job it's probably even sweeter with a bow you made yourself.
