That stinks about your photos.   I've lost a photo card here and there or a roll of film at the processor.  Makes you sick in the guts.   Congrats on the nice bull.   :tup:

Nice Bull! And it's also interesting to see how many people want the "newest, best" bow when so many great bows from the 60's and 70's are out there.

Awesome buck "bone"!   

Already posted in the 2014 bull thread. My first big game trad kill, my second archery bull. The bow is nothing too special, it's a plain jane 1969 Bear Alaskan I picked up in a second hand store, but it is 62" and draws 50#@28", with my 30" draw she pulls a wee bit more. Feather fletched 340 ICS hunters and 125gr. magnus buzz cuts. Still wanting to take an animal with a bow I've built myself, maybe next year. Unfurtunatly I shot this bull on a friday, and lost my camera that sunday while TUNA fishing, had 1500 pics on the card documenting my trad build progress :'( replaced the cam can't replace the pics :'( :'( :'(

Congrats on the first stickbow kill TONTO...well done!   Sorry to hear about losing the pics, total bummer! 

If we take up donations for you to buy a quiver with a hood that covers your broadheads, would you please buy one and use it?   Hate to see you stab yourself bud!!!!!

I think Washington has a big football game today...Apple Cup?

There's a big game down here in Oregon as well.  I killed this buck in 2009 the day after the Oregon Ducks beat Oregon State in the Civil War.  I wore a shirt to rub it in for a few friends.

The first blacktail I killed from a treestand, he came in downwind and followed the scent line to a tarsal gland I had hung on a limb in front of my stand.

Oregon sure does produce some nice looking blacktail. That's a beauty!

My one and only traditional archery kill.  Shot at 7 yards in northern Idaho with a Sapphire Hawk bow.  Piled up 35 yards after the shot!!



He had fantastic hair.

Here is a bear taken on the ground at 10 yards. That'll get your adrelenine pumping. By the way, I made the bow and arrows too. Icing on the cake.

Wow... what a thrill, that's definitely living right there. Tougher than me though... I don't think I'd want to be that close to a bear unless I had a guy behind me with a gun in case I missed and became lunch!

He was the thrid bear into the bait, he came in sweet talking a little blonde sow and then noticed a big pile of strawberry flavored popcorn, lost all interest in the sow and made a 90 degree turn and came right into the bait.  It was awesome!  :)
