I have been trying for quite some time to get a deer with a bow, 4 years to be exact. I have injured 2 deer in my attempt and havent got one.

On saturday i went out and a little befour 6 i heard some crunching so i watched and out walked a buck. As sson as it got where i could shoot it it put its head down in the goldenrod and started eating weeds. I pulled back and wham got him. The arrow went right down him and he only ran about 30 yards.

Here he is, almost a 7 pointer but he broke his main beam off on the right side so it is a 6:

Congrats Jordan!!!! What a thrill........ there is nothing
on the planet like pulling back the string on a deer, your
heart pounding like it's going to come out of your chest.

Way to go.......

Nice Jordan! Touching base with where food REALLY comes from, and doin' it the hard way takes skill. Congrats on your harvest.
