Finally Got Photo of My First Trad Kill
« on: January 22, 2007, 08:58:00 PM »
My cousin, who took the photos for me, finally got around to emailing them to me.  Here's the best one.  Details:  killed Dec. 29 with a 50# Ancient Spirits Thunderhawk and 2016 aluminum with a 125 Zwickey Eskimo.  The bow has Osage limbs and riser with a black locust and black walnut flare.  Back to the deer...just a small button buck but you can tell by the smile on the guy behind it that size doesn't matter.  Complete pass-through...only went about 25 yards.

And I've got a couple weeks still to get another...

 
"So much do the savages esteem the wood of this tree for the purpose of making their bows, that they travel many hundred miles in quest of it."  -- Meriweather Lewis' description of the Osage Orange tree in a letter sent to Thomas Jefferson.
