Title: My son's first deer
Post by: ZogTheFuzzy on February 10, 2011, 01:04:01 AM: Here's my son Jon with his first deer (near Winthrop, WA). He used a 50# Bear compound bow. He teases me a lot, as I haven't gotten a deer yet. :)

I hunted with that bow for about 10 years before I gave it to him, and the first season he hunts with it HE gets a deer. <sigh> :rolleyes:

He got that doe up in the woods near the Chewuch River above Winthrop. It is indeed a very nice area!

Great suggestion! After reading your post, I told him that the reason he got that deer was because I am a better guide than hunter. He laughed big time! :)
