lpcjon2, Why was there a big coon in your underware at 4am, eating trash so late at night????LOL!

My first deer with a bow and only so far was in 2006 when I was 12.

Shot it with my Black Widow PSR III 54@30 so it was more around 40 at my draw length back then and an Easton Legacy with a Bear Razorhead broad head.

First traditional animal with a pic taken, shared a camp with Fred Asbell. He just happened to be close by, helped me track & took the pic. Pretty special at the time. Last day in quebec, no migration to speak of, shot at a trot, 37 paces in desperation. Took out the top of the heart, as luck would have it. Bigriver flatbow, 54lbs, home made cedars, magnus 4 blade.

Big river:  That is a cool story about Fred Asbell in camp.  What a hunt and experience!  Would like to meet and visit with him someday.  Great shot on the bou!  

Schafer- that is a smile of accomplishment right there!  Another will come your way.

Thanks for posting.    

I just picked up a trad bow this October and I managed to kill my first buck with it in December.

I really wish I would've gotten a better picture of my first deer with a trad bow, live and learn I guess.

Jon,

Brother you look like a bowhunter in that picture!  Congrat on that trophy.

Keep em coming!  Get ya jazzed about bowhunting.

Firsts?

All my first's are in a box, the old film pics, and I have no clue how to scan and do all that stuff.

Cool pics!

Nice gator! Sweet! I wonder why it doesn't weigh 700-900 pounds like all the 11' er's the swamp people get on tv?  

I didn't carry my Polaroid around...(if they were invented yet..might not have been come to think of it)..back in the late 50's or early 60's..(can't remember that either).. when I killed my first deer with recurve. Anyhow, these are the first two I killed since back from over 40yr layoff with recurve. Got them last season.
