Default First Bow Kill.....Yahoo!!

On tues nite,my son and I went out to a property I have never hunted before.Since it was my first time out this season,I was just hoping to see one for Brandon's sake( Brandon is 9 years old, and is a good shot already with his bow).Anyways, at 7:05 pm we could hear that heart-pounding sweet noise of DEER approaching.Three does came out at 15 yards, I looked back at my son ,and his eyes were as big as oranges.I drew and settled the pin on the sweet spot.She only ran 45-50 yards and expired.I'm so impressed with my 100 grain Spitfires...What an entry and exit wound.Had a bit of a time tracking her at dark in thick cedar trees, but the blood trail was ENORMOUS!! Anyways.she weighed 175 lbs on the hoof and if I can figure out how to post a picture I will.You guys and Gals have been a huge help with all of the information on this board.Thanx.Steve and Brandon.

Good going, now that you have downed one get Brandon on the point. He will never forget the time in the woods with Dad.

Wow, and I thought my 100 lbs doe was good sized. Good job sc40. there is nothing like getting the little ones involved in your hunting experiences. It is something that they will remeber for their lifetime.

If you need your pic posted here, mail it to me and I will get it on for you or you can do it yourself by creating an account at http://www.hunting-pictures.com

The best of luck in all your hunting endeavors!!!

God Bless,
Dave
