Well after 3 years, thousands of practice shots, 3 turkeys and several hrs in the stand I finally took my first shot at and dropped my first Deer. It's a medium sized 10 with a crab claw on the left G3. Shot was a little high but he dropped in his tracks. I was listening to the ranger game and just as the top of the 9th started he showed up. This particular stand they are on you before you can see them/ Shot was 16 yds Matthews Drenelin, Carbon Express Arrow and G5 T3 Broadhead in Voca, Texas. One of the great things about this kill my youngest was with me at the lease.

A very big congrats sir!!!!! Awesome It took me 5 yrs and many practice shots, a few does and a javi, until this past saturday I finally scored one. I know exactly how you feel. Keep riding that high, as there is no other like it.

Pretty buck! You gain all the respect in the world for the sport of bow hunting by using this method. And, yes, it is addicting. Congrats!!!
A bad day hunting is better than a good day doing anything else.

I must say the thrill of taking this deer with a bow is easily the equilivent of taking my first deer as a kid. Thanks everyone!

Congrats on your first kill. I bet you are on cloud nine. Now, I gotta ask, why you got your deer in a scissor lock?
