First kill with a bow

[Jrodrig26]

How many of y'all remembered y'all's first kill or took someone with you that got there first kill with a bow. Hopefully this year I can have that same feeling.

My first kill with a bow was a yote, and with the same arrow was my second kill. That was the neighbors car.

Mine was a hog spot and stalk I'll never forget the blood gushing out. Freaked me out

So far my first kill with a bow is my only significant one.

I went to my Karnes county lease in mid December with my girlfriend (fiancé now) and little brother. The day started out crappy, with the trailer tire blowing half way to camp. We rolled in late, and I didn't really think hunting that evening would do much, but we pressed on. I settled into my pop up and my girlfriend and brother were in a rifle blind 49 yards behind me with binoculars. I was extremely tucked away and could only see out of one window, so they were my eyes.
After 30 minutes in the blind the feeder went off, and deer started moving. All of a sudden, I get a text that simply says "there!!!!".... Well I froze when I read that because as I looked up from my phone all I saw was a deer nose three yards from my window. She stepped up a couple steps then stared right at me, tail up. I figured I was busted, but she calmed down and walked to the feeder 18 yards away. Soon thereafter I sling an arrow, and 49 yards later she was down.


Thus is the story of my avatar.

I shot a cottontail. That scream they put out still visits my dreams.

My twin brother shot his first doe with my compound bow that I had bought we was hunting and I had my bow and he's bow was messed up when a doe walked up I handed him my bow and told him take it the shot. He looked at me and said your joken I said nope take it so he did he was really happy but at the end all I heard was I shot a deer with your bow and you didn't shoot anything.lol

My first bow kill was an old tom! My biggest turkey yet. 19.25 lbs, 11" beard, and 1.25" spurs. Best of all it was with the guillotine!

Mine was a possum stealing food out of a dog food bowl. I was using a Golden Eagle Evolution with massive sized aluminum arrow. Dead shot in the head. Arrow went through him, the metal bowl, and into the ground. I was wearing a special camouflage, boxers and flip flops.

Mine was 18 ago years last October. Get this - it was my very first sit as a bow hunter! A doe walked under my stand then at 15 yards, turned broadside and looked away from me. Perfect! I shot and she went down within sight. I remember thinking "not only is bow hunting a blast, it's easy!" I subsequently found out I was wrong about the last part of that statement - I hunted hard but did not get another bow kill for 3 years!
