Title: Marie's Buck
Post by: Dsturgisjr on October 14, 2011, 01:04:00 PM
While I was hunting moose, elk and deer in BC with no shots taken; my wife, Marie, slipped into one of my favorite stands back in MI  :)   one evening. She made a perfect shot on this 8-point, tracked it,dressed it, dragged it to a lane and pulled it to the house on a tarp behind the lawn tractor!

What equipment do you use ?

Post by: PBNJ on October 14, 2011, 01:54:00 PM
Great job Marie...congratulations! I was curious of the same thing regarding your choice of hunting set-up I see that's a black widow longbow and I think you and Denny use carbon arrows but that's all I can remember. Let's here the details, Thanks Paul

Denny, I think that used to be one of your favorite stands. You might want to ask.....NICELY.....before using it in the future.
But somehow I think it's more than worth it.
You both should be proud.
