Yes, I am definitely hooked for life. Bowhunting is so much more fun and difficult than hunting with a shotgun. The doe might look small but it weighed a little over 100 pounds. Nice size for a doe. Her hair does look all messed up, ("looks like it got hit by a car") but thats because we dragged it out of the woods with a quad. I got it in Sparta, NJ. Zone 6.
