ANGRY WITH ALL OF YOU!!!!
For not telling me about bowhunting earlier!!!!!!!!
Hopefully the picture works this time I think I finally figured it out. This is my first buck with my first arrow I ever shot a buck. I gotta tell you (as you know) there is nothing that can compare to this. I was absolutely shocked at the difference between bow and gun season. This was the 7th different buck I saw from my stand. There was 2 prior that I actually could've shot, but passed (smaller deer). This guy came in like a dream just like I pictured everytime I was in that stand. He got to 15 yards broadside. Fortunately he stood behind a cluster of trees for about 5 minutes which gave my heart time to get back down to 300 beats per minute. Finally took a few steps out in the wide open and I took him. Unbelievable!!!!!!!!! Nothing can compare to it. He ran about 50 yards and went down. Tough to wipe the smile off my face after that. Anyway thank you to everyone on here I gathered some valueable info from you guys that helped me on my hunts. Practice Practice Practice. Nothing can prepare you for the real thing so I made it my goal for my shooting skills to be engrained in my head for when the moment comes. Make it a reflex. Long time to wait for October.

A beauty for sure!! Congratulations!
Certainly a "Kodak Moment" you will never forget!
I know how it compares to getting a "birdie" (both ways), but how does it compare to getting a hole-in-one? <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
