Title: Early season success
Post by: scrub-buster on October 09, 2020, 10:17:19 PM: I've had a great start to the hunting season this year. I got a doe opening morning and another one this evening. Both were killed with my Yellowstone Longbow. The first deer was a lung shot and the one today was a heart shot. Neither one went very far.

It was a close quartering away angle. The arrow lodged in the opposite shoulder.

I got to test out my new heavy duty deer skinning stand

Thanks Pat. The skinning stand is working great. I'm not staying in as good of shape as I would like. Between two jobs and preparing for deer season it doesn't leave much time to exercise.

The first doe I used a Simmons Swampshark. The second doe I used a Cliff Zwickey.

Thanks. I rebuilt it a few weeks ago out of all galvanized steel. That thing will be there until my future grandkids are too old to hunt.
