I am back!! With Pictures!!
 
Well guys, I made it back from an entirely to short of a trip. A full week up in the mountains in Colorado is just not long enough!! The trip was great and we had some great success.

This first picture is of my Dad and his Cow Elk. He shot her at 10 yards.

The next two pictures are of a 3 x 7 Mule Deer that I shot. We were estimatings that he weighed close to 180 and that he was 3 1/2 years old. Please forgive the first picture. I didn't know dad was taking the picture!!

This guy was actually a little bigger than the one I got last year. Luckily the taxidermist hasn't started last years and I am going to swap antlers with him and get this one mounted. The Cardeer Necklace did its job.





The next picture is of my buddy and his 5x5 Mule Deer. He was a tad smaller than mine beings he was only 2 1/2 years old. Weighed in at about 150. He stole my Cardeer necklace after I shot mine and had it with him also.



Thanks for all the goodluck you guys gave me before I left!!

This last part is just for Frank.....They were all shot with Mathews!!

I also got some pictures of live animals that I will post later. Dad has some too, I will get them too. Nothing like what Sask posts, but they were fun just as well.

I had some other opportunities that I could not capitalize on, but I am not upset in the least. I had a couple of small bulls withing 60 yards. Some cows fairly close. My buddy missed a shot at a small bull. My buddy was also sitting by a walo and had 2 spikes come and play in it. They were so close he got splashed when they were playing.

Lady Forge....sometimes I wonder if it can get any better!!

Some of my best times are spent in the woods with my father and my buddy. The rest are usually at home with my wonderful little girl and wife. Check her out. She is almost ready to come out with me!! I picked these up for her at Cabelas on the way home.

Congratulations IBM. Those are some fine animals and some dandy pics.<img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>

But I have to say that you three must be some accomplished archers if you managed to take them all with Mathews bows...<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

Gotcha!<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Congrats on your muledeer all of you and thanks for sharing the pics and that sure is a cute little one bet she looks just like her mom.:)

IL_BOW_MAN 09-09-2002 03:29 PM

RE: I am back!! With Pictures!!
 
How correct you are Royak, she looks just like her mom. But it is a good darn thing she don't act like her!! I am trying to train her right. We were watching the video I took when we were out there and she kept pointing and saying &quot;deer&quot;. She seen the antlers and did the same thing. Maybe...just maybe, one day I will be taking her pictures of her bow kills.

We are all very accomplished bow hunters Frank...... Can't you tell?

Hey by the way, post us a picture of that deer you shot with your Hoyt last year.<img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle> Oh, I am sorry, I forgot<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

It is not the bow that makes the shooter, but the shooter that makes the bow. And we sure made Mathews look good on this trip.<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

She looks like a little doll, what a cutie in those bibs. I was never blessed with a girl, I have 2 sons 13 and 19, but I srill get to have fun buying the younger one camo because he hunts. I look forward to hopefully someday getting to see photos of your daughters and my sons first harvests:)

IBM,

Which one do you want a picture of...the buck or the doe??<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>..or do you want a picture of the one I will shoot in approximately 26 days?

<img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>

Yeah, I guess as a Mathews shooter you are right...<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
