RE: What was your first deer???
My very first deer was a button buck, taken with a bow. My older brother was squirrel hunting over the opposite hill and he jumped three deer they ran right by me except for the button buck, why he stopped I have no idea, but I made it all happen with a 45lb Indian deer slayer compound bow that I got for christmas the year before. I HAVE BEEN HOOKED EVER SINCE!!!!!!!! If I had to chose between one outdoor activity it would definitley be bowhunting. I had an accident a few years back and lost my vision in my left eye and hate to admit that I am not to quick with a rifle anymore, just cant shoot right handed cant seem to get the coordination, but my bow aiming is from my right eye and thats still working perfect.
