My first archery buck!!!(New pic)
Well first I would like to thank all you guys for the help you gave me. Now to the story. I have hunted every day since opener(sept. 15) and have passed up a ton of does and little bucks. I got to my stand at 5:30. It over looks a large CRP field with a woods behind me and a hay field to the right. At about 6:15 15 does came out into the hay field.Then nothing till right at dark. I heard something walking really close to my right. Then a doe ran out into the CRP field 20 yards away. Then I look back and there is a nice buck standing 33 yards away. So I stood up, anchored, put my 30 yard pin a couple inches high and let r rip. I hit the buck a hair high and a little far back in the liver. So I waited 1 hour and got down and found blood and followed a good blood trail 100 yards to my buck. The Rage 2 blade left a big hole as always.

Fantastic, congratulations on your first archery buck, you'll always remember that one.
On a side note, in your pic, did you notice how faded and white your MO camo is, like a neon sign...lol [8D]
Your bucket shooting paid off bigtime didn't it.
Congratulations again. Did you cape it for a mount or just a skull or plaque mount? Nice buck.

VERY nice buck for a first one!!
I'm betting that camo wouldn't look too bad from the ground with the sky as your backdrop though! Especially if you took a can of black spray paint and broke it up into some segments so you weren't one "zone"...
