RE: Did you get the first deer you shot at?
Well, if you count the teensy thing I shot as a deer then yes. I sht a yearling with my bow, hit low ( from a treestand so the pass thru hit a lung anyhow ) But it was so small I hoisted it by its legs and carried it ( carried not dragged ) to where I guted it. I am a bit embarrassed by that one but figured you asked. Only taken 3 deer in a cumulative 7 years of hunting, 2 on antlerless tags. But, I guess I am doing good cause I have yet to fire on one and not take it home.
Just my uneducated opinion!
