First Deer with bow
 
I finally did it. After bowhunting for 4 years I was finally successful on a deer. I shot an 85 lb doe last night. She came in 5:30 and was very spooky. After about 10 or 15 minutes she offered a broadside shot at 35 yards. Complete passthrough at the back of the shoulders, and she only ran 30 yards...that Stinger 4-blade worked perfectly. Whilenot a wall hanger, this doe means more to me than any of my rifle killed bucks. The adrenaline rush was out of this world. Man I love bowhunting. A day late but Santa was sure good to me!!!

Congrates on your first deer. My first deer with a bow was a doe too.

It took me several years gun hunting before I was successful, but after that I got one every year. Hopefully the same will be true with archery. The bloodtrail from this doe was adequate, but a little disappointing. However, I hit her pretty far forward and only passed through one lung lobe. Thanks for all the comments. Did I say I love bowhunting...lol??
