Title: Finally Got Photo of My First Trad Kill
Post by: DaleinOhio on January 22, 2007, 08:58:00 PM

My cousin, who took the photos for me, finally got around to emailing them to me.  Here's the best one.  Details:  killed Dec. 29 with a 50# Ancient Spirits Thunderhawk and 2016 aluminum with a 125 Zwickey Eskimo.  The bow has Osage limbs and riser with a black locust and black walnut flare.  Back to the deer...just a small button buck but you can tell by the smile on the guy behind it that size doesn't matter.  Complete pass-through...only went about 25 yards.

And I've got a couple weeks still to get another...

Thanks to all!  Killing this one far outshines all the other deer I have taken.

Mooseman76:  As a Missouri boy now living in Ohio I have to show my Cardinal pride.  I wear that hat to the woods and after hunting.  Well, when I'm not working or hunting I am usually wearing that hat!

HerkimerHunter:  I tanned that hide with the fur on to maybe make myself a quiver.  I've been working it a little every day to get it nice and soft.
