My first deer was a 8 point PA buck I took with a 45# Bear Grizzly recurve, fiberglass arrows and Bear Razorheads. I was hunting alone and had a half mile drag to my truck. I was 16. I started hunting at 12 but I had to go with an adult. I swore they always put me in the worst places on stand! At 16 I was able to hunt alone and took the above buck the first day of archery season.
