i finally got my first buck with a bow
« on: September 07, 2009, 10:34:43 AM »
This is my forth year hunting with a bow and have harvested a doe every season.  This year it finally paid off i got my first buck.  He was no where near a monster but it works for me.  A velvet spike.  spikes are about 6 in.  shot was 40 yards. he ran 140 yards then dropped. was a  good day after getting soaked from the morning rain

Congrats Cook, did you take any field pics?
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Great job!  When you hold off, it pays off!  Can't wait for pics!
I would rather be a conservative nut job, than a liberal with no nuts, and no job!
