I was going to stay out of this, but just can't! first congrats to your father on the deer. ANY deer taken with a bow is somthing to be proud of. I have shot button bucks, and will probably shoot one again. If given a choice I would shoot the bigger doe, but thier is NOTHING wrong with shooting any legal deer you wish. If you do it within the law. Hey I take what I can get for the first deer or two of the year, and then I get pickey. I have been blessed in that I have been a fairly successful bowhunter, and deerhunter in general, but when I take someone out for their first deer, I tell them to shoot the first legal animal they can. Davidmil has the right Idea with that. I do agree with the others in that proper bow tuning will help solve the broadhead flight problems and I cringe everytime I hear someone say &quot;use a mechanical becuase you won't have to tune your bow&quot;<img src=icon_smile_shock.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>Nothing could be farther from the truth, and that is one of the reasons mechanical heads have had recieved so much &quot;bad press&quot;. Again though congrats on the deer and some very fine eating!

TAKE YOUR KIDS HUNTING AND YOU WON'T BE HUNTING FOR YOUR KIDS
