Finally, after returning to the compound bow from shooting a crossbow. I went 3 years with not harvesting a buck. The other choice I made at that time I was no longer gonna shoot immature bucks. After letting buck after buck walk for three years I finally had a mature buck enter the 30 yard kill zone. He is only a 6 point but with good mass and tine length he is a mature 3.5 yr old. with a 21" spread and dressed out at 170lbs. I got a slight 1/4 away shot and watched the buck go down in sight. Although my buddy and I have a unwritten rule of not shooting anything less than an eight point, he let me slide on this one!
Now it is time to get my 12 yr old son a buck it is his first season as a legal hunter and chomping at the bit to get one!
O, the deer was taken in Chester Co. Pa.
First Bow Buck!
