I still get excited about shooting deer.  This year it may have gotten the best of me as I took this little guy opening week.  25 years since my last recurve kill.  Probably 27 years since my last 2018 XX75 kill.  Told myself on New Years I was going to take my 2018 buck with a 2018 arrow from a recurve.  With the way the season has gone so far I'm pretty happy I sent it early.
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

Very nice Radsav! Nothing like it! I just absolutely love taking animals with my recurve or hybrid longbow! Awesome bucks everyone!

 Love the enthusiasm.  Surely a trophy with a recurve bow.  It amazes me how early they start shedding their summer coats.  You'd think they'd be hot as hell all September.

How'd this thread loose it's sticky status.  Did someone get mad at us?

Not the biggest rack but by far the biggest bodied deer to date for me. Hanging weight at the butcher was 141lbs.
Made for a great workout getting him packed out. The butcher said it was the biggest weight deer they had brought in so far. 20 yard shot, took 0 steps before hitting the dirt.
