Title: my WV archery deer season is over 'pics'
Post by: sswv on December 16, 2009, 08:19:00 PM
got this young 8 pointer this evening not too far from my house. my Bob Lee LB is in Texas having new limbs fitted so the trusty little RER Vortex came thru as usuall. got a big doe and a small 9 pointer earlier this fall with the Bob Lee LB so I'm all tagged out. guess it's time to start practicing for a Jan hog hunt in FL.  (http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n175/sswv/103_4860.jpg)

Great job!! I really miss hunting in West Virginia.

Man, you can still see green grass down there. I'm thinking hard about moving back home, between the deer numbers and weather. You're not making it any easier to resist.

Good for you, I'm assuming that last one came during or after firearms, always tougher to get em then.
Title: Re: my WV archery deer season is over 'pics'
Post by: jesse cales on December 17, 2009, 08:59:00 AM
danny didn't tell you guys the whole story.he spotted that buck about a week ago.he said it was gonna be that deer or nothing for his last tag.took him about a week to close the deal.how's that for dedication?
 he's the best i know on deer with the stick and string.i learn something new every time we hunt together.all of my traditional harvests have come as a direct result of danny's help.

Post by: sswv on December 17, 2009, 10:41:00 AM
thanks again guys. I agree Jack, late season here is mighty tough. a couple years ago I killed an 8 pointer with my stick that was after a small doe the week after gun season. one thing about it, you don't run across many other people (if any) this time of year.


hey banana bowman!   we're headed to a little town called Ona, Fl which is near Lakeland. I hear mid Jan is a good time for pigs there.

Post by: sswv on December 17, 2009, 12:26:00 PM
yeah Kenny I figured it out but, the new computer gets the credit.

I almost forgot the specs. the bow in the picture is my little black RER Vortex (a sponser on here) 56"s and 46#@28". I shoot 29 1/4" Gold Tip Traditional's with 50 gn inserts and a 125 grain 4-blade head. either a SteelForce or Muzzy Phantom. I like them both equally. this buck got the SteelForce and the 9 pointer in Nov got a Phantom. the Oct doe also got a SteelForce. both GREAT heads. oh yeah, did ya'll notice that Teresa Asbell hand made wool pullover? (another tradgang sponser) VERY warm and comfortable. We gotta give them sponsers a    :thumbsup:  .

Congratulations on the fine buck!   To kill a rack buck in West Virginia this time of year shows me that you're a heck of a hunter!
Title: Re: my WV archery deer season is over 'pics'
Post by: sswv on December 18, 2009, 12:24:00 PM
it does get tough around here time of year Cookus.  like Jesse said...it was this buck or none for the last tag. I sure couldn't have been this patient when I was younger. I guess there are some advantages to getting older.

I thank everyone for the nice compliments and wish you all a VERY Merry Christmas.

Happy Huntin' & Happy New year
