Recurve Doe Down

[WArookie]

After some snafu's learning to use a climbing stand, I was able to arrow this doe on Sunday morning.  My first muley.  Shot her with a Zwickey Delta and a Chekmate recurve.  Now on to the elk woods next week.

My hunting buddy Craig helped me out A LOT on this hunt.  Coudn't have done it without him.

Way to go on your first muley warookie, and with a recurve to boot!

I've been shooting recurves/longbows since '93, so I have them down pretty well.  Killed quite a few whitetails in Texas with traditional gear.  

My range is certainly limited, but I have learned to live with that.  I'm sure with a Mathews or Bowtech I could kill more critters at longer distances, but I've been shooting trad gear so long, I just don't see the need to change.

Gonna fry up some backstrap tomorrow.  She had a nice coat (very little summer coat left).  I'm going to get the hide tanned.  Should be pretty.

Kind of sad that my deer season is over, but it is a relief to have a deer in the freezer.

Good luck everyone.

Well done!   Its the ultimate challenge to hunt game with a Trad bow and you got it done.  I'm def not putting down any method, but let me tell you, after you've done it, you'd understand.  Well done.
