Nice javelina Capt'n Dick. Congrats on your first trad hunt/kill. That's awesome! Guess I got nothing to offer here except .....congrats! empty handed this year, but just had to congrats someone who has been a big help to lots of Hill owners, and more especially built his own bow and got a kill on his first trad hunt. Just a great deal Dick!

Alright!   Those are some fine looking animals.  

I responded direct to the comments/inquiries about my bow and hunt.  Didn't want to see this thread move off its topic of great success pics.  Let's see more!

I killed a jake turkey in the spring NE season, then hunted with my outfitter brother in Alberta where I took two black bears, the best of which is pictured here.



Lots of fishing with my daughters this summer, including this nice bass.



Early in the NE season, Sept. 25, I was lucky enough to be able to take this young buck at about 10 yards with my 6-year old daughter Emily in the stand with me, something she and I have always wanted to be able to do.  GREAT night.



On Oct. 2, I was able to stalk this 4x5 buck in a standing cornfield during a wind storm, also about 10 yards.  Coyotes beat me to the back half but it was still a very exciting/rewarding hunt.  Photos don't do justice to his rack, 19" wide and decent mass.  



Also thus far have taken three other deer that qualify as antlerless (the young buck with my daughter also fit that legal description).  Here's a doe taken Oct. 6 from the ground in standing corn also.



And another taken from a tree stand while sharing the field during a three-day 'rifle' season on Oct. 10.  



And finally a deer taken Oct. 21 while still-hunting through tall CRP grass.  Three of my five deer this year have been taken from the ground, all with a Pronghorn takedown longbow, Woodmsan heads.



Still hunting--and have actually passed up 5 bucks last two times out (two of which were really pretty nice)--but we just hammered by a blizzard that is still going and I may have difficulty even getting near my hunting spots in the few days I have remaining.  Passed up more 120-130" bucks this season than any before, and combined with standing corn that still exists in some parts, have high hopes that next year could have some big deer to chase.  Had hoped to add a couple does to the list, but yesterday would've been over a 1/2-mile drag with a blizzard due any hour, and I just couldn't get myself to let 'er rip.

Here's my year in review.

February 10th
Went looking for pigs with RC.  I was trailing behind him, and he had already stepped right next to this joker and got him riled up.  I don't think I would have seen him if he hadn't had his mouth wide open displaying his pearly whites.  He tried to eat my judo point and choked to death.








Later that same day...




February 18th
First pig for the year.  
21 yards




March 30th
Pork chop from the swamp.  
7 yards




June 20th
Pig #3

And finally, a backyard rabbit shot at 27 yards with a Snuffer.

 


I've had a good season, but it's been cut short with all the rain we've had.  The property I hunt is flooded, and I've only been able to make 2 hunts in December.  More rain today.    "[dntthnk]"      Gonna try to get on the pigs HARD after the first of the year.


Add one more.
