Title: Back Yard Buck
Post by: David Lewis on August 15, 2009, 04:25:00 PM
I just joined tradgang last week and this is my first topic. I thought I share my backyard buck from last year 10/3/08.

54# Tomohawk longbow
Carbonwood Arrows
Right behind my house.
First day I hunted last year I was only in the tree for 10 minutes when he came down the trail.
I see a lot of deer in my yard (propery backs to a state park) Never seen a bigun like him before back there.

Welcome, David and congratulations on the buck!  It sounds like you have a "deer super store" in your backyard.    :D

Several years ago I knew a fellow who watched a real nice buck cross the highway and cut thru the edge of his yard every morning just after day break. So, he built himself a stand in the back corner of his property, and watched him out of his kitchen window. Every morning, it was the same routine. Opening day, a little before daybreak, he crawled into his stand and a short time later he heard tires squalling and a loud whomp out front of his house...you can guess the rest.

Geno, Backyard to my man cave/office.

Ray, Changed my jeans after I loaded him into the truck. I had to get my wife to help me get him up and into the truck; Had to bribe her with a new dress before she would help me!!  :bigsmyl:  
I should try and photo shop the blood out of the picture.

WOW!!! Nice one!!!a big congrats to you and the wife for helping.... I used to live up that way and actually got onto bowhunting from watching those monster bucks that would run up and down the gunpowder while I was fishing... But boy did their attitude change around Sept 15th...

I chased a few around their, prettyboy and liberty reservoirs... Also the watershed near Fredrick... A bowhunting Mecca... My first season was up that ways.. Didn't connect, but learned a lot!
