remington my first bow kill was a 60 lb ungutted button buck or what i call a toe head. i was 20 years old. i never would have imagined i could be so gidy and happy over something like that, not after having killed some of the bucks i have, and i got made fun of for it but man il tell you 1 thing, for a first deer, be it a gun or a bow kill, a toe head, a big doe, a trophy buck or a FAWN WITH SPOTS is gona be something that you will remember for the rest of your life. like everyone else here is saying dnt let 1 ignorant jerk ruin the pride i know you are feeling, as any hunter would be with their first.
as a hunter you have to decide for yourself what makes a shooter. for me it is any legal deer. for others its a trophy rack. that is something you will have to decide for youself. but do not let somebody else make that decision for you

be proud. good job and happy hunting
