Title: First Whitetail For Me
Post by: Alexander Traditional on January 13, 2014, 01:08:00 PM

It's been a good hunting season for me. I got my first animal with a longbow a couple of weeks ago,which was a hog. I got my first whitetail now. I forgot my camera at home so I had to field dress it,and then took it over to my buddies house to take pictures and finish skinning it.

I shot it at twenty yards and hit it right behind the shoulder. She went down in thirty yards.

Hey thanks Stumpkiller. It's a Big Jim's. Very good quality. I use it while I practice and have gotten quite used to it.

Thanks Jaceson. It's a Filson small field bag. I like all of Filsons stuff it's just they are getting a little out of my price range these days.

My first traditional harvest was a doe like yours. The previous evening I overshot a nice buck, I didn't pick a spot, but the excitement of it all coming together on that doe was truly surreal. I'm so grateful that I was challenged to hunt traditional; the challenge was really a gift. Congratulations!
