We can only kill anterless deer right now, so he decided tonight to carry his bow instead of a rifle. I set up in another stand about 50 yards away and watched as 2 came in right at dark. This one came in and started to walk away so i gave it a bleat and it calmed down. I could not see Cody but I could see the deer as it hit the snow! It was awesome being able to watch it all happen!

Most stuff does when you kill it.



Was it a neck shot ? It looks like I can see the entrance but I'm not sure.

he hit hit right square in the spine. he told me before he even climbed down where he aimed and it was a few inches back but dead on. his idea was to drop it, ofcourse it went about 100 yards down the steepest hill we have on its belly:p

Pappy what is he shooting with? What should a new guy like me be shooting? I had a couple extra hours to take this semester and I took archery and fell in love with it. Never been much of a hunter, but I do think target shooting and maybe eventually hunting is something I would like to do...anyways, what I am asking, is parent told me to pick out one big gift for christmas...honestly can't decide between a new TV and a bow. seems like it would be an easy decision, but it isn't!

which bow o buy is sort of like asking what quad to buy:p

my advice, get yourself to a few shops that sell bows (perferably one that specializes in just archery) and try out a few. Its like anything else, what fits you the best will usually work the best.

be prepared, a bow with all the goodies will easily top $1000, but you do not have to spend that much. its a great sport even if you never even want to hunt!

cody shoots a Bear at 51 pounds, carbon arrows, summit hot shot digital sight with a release and 85 grain shockwave expandable broadheads.

Isn't Cody only 14 ? 51 lbs sounds pretty good for a 14 year old. Do you know off the top of your head how much let off it has?

Pappy

i can kill 1 more buck, and 2 doe's

cody can take 3 bucks and 2 doe's

ryan is wide open and so is the wifes tags, she gets 3 or either sex just hunting as a land owner.

ive only killed 1 in maryland so i can drop them like flies if i get into them during muzzleloader and the rest of bow season.



"Look out Ned, their comin' right for us":devil:
