Most of you have seen in the LFTT thread, but wanted to make a separate post. It ain't a huge buck, just a doe, but MAN WHAT A RUSH. Without getting too sappy and sentimental, I just want to say thanks to everyone on here that has given me advice and tips. No one in my family hunts, so learning how to bow hunt has been a challenge, but I think that is true for anyone. I finally got it put together this morning and connected, I'm hooked forever. This is my third season to hunt, second deer, and first with a bow. I can honestly say, the bow deer was way more satisfying. I'm sure I will still tote a rifle this season...but I'm not hanging the bow up either. Next goal: Kill my first buck. Thanks guys! First pic you can see where it died:

There's nothing quite like getting your first deer with a bow. It's an awesome feeling, and it always feels awesome no matter how many you get! Congrats! Way to go Jono!... Congrats Pal you earned it...

Way to stick with it!! Now go get you that buck with a bow.
Nice shot by the way, love those type of tracking jobs.
Also, you might try slicing a doe back leg where you normally hang her up to clean her and then stick the other hoof through the slit to make a figure 4 shape. It makes a nice handle to grab hold of for dragging a doe.
