Default Got my first bow kill!!!

I got my first bow kill last night! It was 6:30pm and I hadn't seen anything all day except a small buck in the morning. Then this buck came in I saw he had a nice rack but wansnt a shooter yet. But then I noticed he was limping badly and refused to put any weight on his left front leg. It was very swollen and looked badly broken. He was also very skinny and underweight. So I decided to take him. When he looked away I pulled the bear back, settled my 25 yrd pin on his shoulder, and let my slick trick tipped arrow fly. It flew right where I wanted and nailed him right behind the right shoulder and out through the left one. He took off across the field only to pile up 25 yrds later. He's a seven and his left foreleg was broken completely through in 2 places. Those slick tricks did their job! So did all that practice!
