Default Big accomplishment for a fellow bowhunter

This is my buddy Bobby. He is 52 and loves deer hunting, hes been at it since he was 16. He is hearing impaired/deaf. He tried bow hunting for years, took a few Does and some small bucksbut becameextremely frustrated by not being able to hear the deer coming and often saw the white flags running away so he hung his bow up some 10 years ago and stuck to only gun hunting. I explained that he should try and set up in spots where deer have a smaller narrower travel routes, funnels, fingers, field corners,etc, instead of hunting in big open hardwoods so we put up a few stands for him. He went out this year, we shot a few bows and he picked up a Mathews Drenalin. Tonight I went out with him and he shot his biggest bow buck to date, not a monster but to him it is. Im very proud and happy for him. Needless to say he is hooked on bowhunting again. This guy is the first one to come help find a deer, and the last one to give up. He's hunted about 30 days this season and definately earned this buck. Great job Bobby
