Congrats. Great first one. looks like you did a great job teaching yourself.
I am hookedCongrats man, that's quite an accomplishment...I bet you are hooked now!
You my vote for post of the year!Three years ago I started hunting. After trying to get someone to teach me and not having any luck I decided that I would teach myself. After dealing with some races people on public land and having some close in counters, I finally got it done. Not only did I get it done but I did it with a bow at 30 yards from the ground. This is one of the best feelings in the world. I even did a pretty good job at field dressing it. Now I am looking forward to enjoying a meal with my friends and family with the deer meat that I will be providing them. I just wanted to share my story with you guys. Good luck out there.
I did not think of that. Sounds like something good to pass down to the kidsYes, sir! Congrats to you! You’ll never forget your first deer. And you have some mighty fine eating right there.
Have you thought about keeping a deer journal? They can be very helpful in looking back through at the details of your hunts. I’ve been keeping one for many years, and I‘ll look back through them from time to time to read about past hunts. I enjoy reading about those hunts from years ago.
I wish you continued success. Have fun out there.
