My first deer with a bow was a 7 point. I've killed several sixes, sevens, and eight points. I believe I've only killed one 9 point and I know only one 12 point.

Probably pretty boring for some folks, but I enjoy it and feel blessed.


Amen, all these years later, and having killed plenty with a bow, it still gives me chicken skin even to see a doe coming in! It's just that nervousness of having to stand, and wait till it's close, and draw back without being seen, then make the shot, then all the follow up and trailing part, dang I love it! (I think that's one of the reasons I've never been a fan of crossbows, it seems to take a lot of what I enjoy about it out of it. Not starting an argument about xbows, just expressing my experiences and how I think it would differ)

We were on the edge of Eternia, when the power of Greyskull began to take hold.
