Shot a great buck today at 3:30.
Haven't been able to hunt or even shoot much this year, work has been a "bit" overwhelming.
I had a chance to get out and took it. Although it is still warm here, this guy was moving at 3:30, came right down the trail I set up on and I got my first ever whitetail heart shot.
I wasn't sitting more than 30 minutes.
Not sure what he weighs, but a bruiser of a body.
9 points, a great public land deer for me.
Had a fantastic night with Tyler my 12 year old, who helped find, drag and gut the beast. His excitement through all of it still has me with a non stop smile on my face.(although the picture shows him looking a little tired!)
I used my old ILF tournament recurve, which I have not hunted with in 10 years. It is the easiest to shoot however, which is why I took it.
20 yard shot broadside, couldn't have asked for better. A great day to be alive.

Excellent.........      

Way to go! Love the pats shirt on the tired kid
