Default My first buck with a bow

Shot my first buck with a bow this morning. Was pretty nervous but had a complete pass thru at 30 yards. Hit both lungs and sliced the liver. This was also my first whitetail which was pretty awesome for an old muley hunter. I couldn't stop shaking for 20 minutes after the shot. It was pretty cool because he only ran 50 yards, stopped and stumbed, then came back toward me and fell over by a cedar tree about 40 yards from my treestand. All my friends have been telling me how additive bowhunting is and now I know why. I'm trying to attach a pic so we will see if it works.
