RE: First deer EVER with a bow(pics)and it's a buck!!
Congrats Atlasman on a nice buck and a great hunt. I remember my first bow kill which was a small doe and it was a trophy for me. I had a nice 8 point come in the first year and only had a direct frontal shot I didn't feel comfortable with. Taking a buck as your first bow kill has to be great. The pic of your venison looks great as well...my only suggestion is to wrap your cuts/burger in an airtight wrap such as Saran and then a finish wrap in freezer paper with the waxed side in toward the meat. I've had venison frozen over a year this way and it stays with no freezer burn or contamination.
