« on: September 01, 2010, 10:40:08 PM »
My dads first archery buck. He shot him at 28 yards.shot this evening 9-1-2010-. - The picture is of my father and my son. The last picture is of the only buck I saw today but he was on the main road heading up into the hills (private property)  :'(

Very nice!  Would love to hear the story, was it spot and stalk?  Congrats on a job well done, looks like text book shot placement.

Congrats to you too for respecting private property.

He got it up in the Colockum. He was up by mile marker 7. He headed up around 6pm. He took off from the truck. Walked about 200 yard down a old logging road and the buck was bedded with a spike. He said it stood up and just looked at him. and didn't move until he shot. The deer ran about 30 yards out in an opening and spun around 3 times and dropped. T he old bow he has is my first bow I bought 10 years ago when I started archery hunting. I shot 2 deer and a spike elk with that old thing. I keep trying to get him to get a newer one but he wont.  It shows you that any old bow will work  :chuckle:
