I have always wanted to shoot a deer with a recerve I took my first deer with a compound when I was 14 yrs old but the old stick and string always had me timid
I had the day off so instead of sleeping in I got to a spot on public land I have had my eye on I just wanted to test everything out on a doe, today was the perfect time and place for it. It didn't take long, I spotted deer coming down the trail headed my way. You know I have shot my share of deer and some good bucks so Why on earth would I get so pumped up over a couple of slick heads (this is what I keep telling my self). With some hand thrown corn laid out they were slow coming in, I think they were as nerves as me I got drawn when the wind changed and they knew its not right. as they were leaving I bleated at them. One stop and turned for a nice little chip shot at 20 yards. I held low as I suspected she would jumped the string and luck would have it! She drop in her tracks spine shot. It's meat for the table so I will take it and the confidence that comes with it. WoHOOOO Then the front came in with rain, that didnt stop the sun shinning I was in joying!
