Default First bow kill, very blessed!!
I went out tuesday even though the wind was blowing 20+mph. I had been in the stand five minutes when I spotted the 9pt buck that I have been after for the last week then two doe walk in behind me. The 9pt walked in to 17 yards
I grunted and stopped him and released and shot over him. I almost went home. Then at 4:40pm this boy came through following five doe he reached the same spot where I had taken the shot at the 9pt and I did not make the same mistake twice. I feel very blessed to have been able to take a buck like this for my first bow kill.
He is an 11pt. 14 1/2 inch inbetween and field dressed @ 167lbs.

You mean someone forgot to tell that deer, that deer don't move when the wind is blowing??????


Congrats that is a fine buck!
