Hi Folks!
Been a lurker for a while. Figured I should stick my nose in and say howdy as the info on this site helped immensely in leading to my first kill last night with stick and string.
58" Shrew Scout ( bought from a trad gang member)
53# @ 28"
Woodsman Broad head.
17 yards.
Not a good shot as I hit about 8 inches too far back and high but I got (very) lucky and it picked up the big artery running under the spine. Full pass thru.Good blood trail. Ran about 40 yards before piling up.

Now back to practice some more so as to hit em where I'm looking! :D
:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :clapper:
Congrats and welcome to the gang!
A BIG CONGRATS, Brad! :thumbsup: I hope to be able to join you in the ranks of having accomplished my first trad kill soon.
:thumbsup: :clapper:
Well alrighty then ! :clapper:
That's good stuff right there! :thumbsup: Congratulations and heres to many more. :archer: :clapper:
Congrats. Ya those under the spine arteries have saved my but a time or two.
congrats!! There will plenty to follow that one!
Great job!Congrats!
Way to go, oh yea.
None of us always hit where we are aiming. Don't beat yourself up over that. The beauty of this game is when that animal is coming in we never know for certain when we "Pull the trigger" whether we will actually get our hands on the prize or not.
You do need to read your trad gang members manual though. On page 143 section B-43.589 it states "When you take a critter and shoot harvest photos you MUST include your bow for all to enjoy."
You better straighten up or Terry will have to send out a blackball letter.
LOL, Great job, enjoy the pork and congrats

Nice introducton!! :thumbsup: :clapper:
Congratulations, and welcome. I hope you have a bunch more pictures like that to share in the future!
Congrats :thumbsup:
Congrats on a nice batch of pork chops.
Thanks folks!
I promise I'll get the bow in the next picture! :p
I dropped the bow off at the house on the way to the cleaning shed. Actually thought about going back to get it but the wife/photographer, patient as she is, wasn't thrilled with the idea of waiting any longer in the skeeters for me to run back to the house to grab the bow. Next time..... ;)
Thanks again for the warm welcome!

Congrats, cant wait for my first trad kill.

Yee ha Brad! That's cool. How about putting together a story of some kind for us voyeurs? You buds with RC & Marty? They're fair hands at hogs too.
Good shot!
Great job, Brad! :thumbsup:
Hope to see you at the Traditional Bowhunters of Florida Fall Rendezvous on August 7-9!
Congratulations on the kill! That looks like a good grilling size. Welcome to the gang. :wavey:

Great job! Pork, yummmmmmmm
Nothing wrong with the center punch shot on a hog. I have a friend who shoots there on purpose. Good going on your first trad harvest, many happy returns.
Nice job! Congrats and welcome.
Very nice. Congratulations.
