[img]http:// [IMG]http://i949.photobucket.com/albums/ad332/mikeike12000/1380809872_zps0b1863e5.jpg[/img][/img] So first year bow hunting and hopefully first pic posted to this forum. I has this guy pop out at 20 yds slung an arrow at him as he was quartered away. Deer fell in his tracks and expired, I'm hooked to bow hunting, I know not every situation goes like that and I know he's not any sort of record but I couldn't be more excited thanks!

If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

Thank you all for the comments any guesses on his age? I really don't want to shoot a young deer but based on what I saw I was guessing he was 4.5-5.5 to. I saw 5 deer 100 yds south of my stand so I tried some light calling to see of they would respond. They came into 60 yds and I was actually trying to get out of my blind when this guy came hustling over stomping and waving his head around. Pretty amazing experience overall. I want to try and skewer a pig next!

He looks probably 2.5. He's a nice buck and a helluva first buck with a bow. Congrats.
