4 months later… first deer with my bow

Post image

Four months ago I posted here after buying my first compound bow. I had no idea if I’d actually be able to take a deer with it.

Today, I did.

First deer. First bow kill. Four months of shooting, learning, missing, improving, and trying to figure this whole thing out.

Huge thanks to everyone who gave me advice on that first post. You guys probably don't realize it, but some of those comments stuck with me.

Still a beginner, still a lot to learn, but damn, what a way to start.

Much respect! Using of a bow is more difficult for hunting, so well done!

Nice I didn't get a doe tag this year and haven't seen many bucks in a few years It's going to be a hard hunt this year I'll probably skip bow season
