Title: A&H + 2018+Zwickey= My 1st ground Trad Kill. :)
Post by: riverrat 2 on November 10, 2013, 09:16:00 PM
Well,thanks to my good friend Gary,and a bit of luck with the wind things finally came together. It has been a ROUGH season here for he and I this year. But tonight this doe cautiously walked out of the woods broadside 18-20 yards out. I shot and man it darned near ducked my arrow!! but those good ol Eastons found the mark. Gary,I know your reading this so...Thanks a bunch buddy. The pressure is off now TradGangers! WHEW! I was really getting concerned. Good luck to you all. rat'

Thank you all. Now I can sit back and be selective if a buck comes my way. In my excited
state after the kill,I used the wrong tag. In Michigan,you have a regular,and a restricted deer tag. Either can be used on a doe in archery season. But the restricted tag only allows a buck kill with 4 or more points on one side. The regular tag...anything is allowed. I used the regular instead of the restricted. Ooops. Still happy though TG'ers!! Thanks to you all again,rat'
