Congrats! I am glad someone is getting some hunting done. We bought a house and moved so all I have accomplished is unpacking but now we have a place we can shoot in the yard again.  Joseph

That's my kind of hunting, sir!

Osage bow, snow, and one fine looking deer!

Great hunt Walt!

Way to go Walt.  Great deer with a great bow.

Wish we had some of that white stuff here, I would even settle for something less than 50 degrees.  65-70 the last 3 days has pretty much stopped any daytime deer movement after 9:00 a.m.  That's my experience in Ohio this week.

Nice buck Walt! You got more patience than I do if you passed on one bigger. I can let the smaller ones go but if it's a 125 class or bigger I'm lettin her fly.

Congrats!

Nice buck, snow hunting already.  Cool in more way than one.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

Great buck Walt. All that snow makes me jealous. There is just something special about a hunt in the snow. Congratulations.

You should have warned us about the snow...I ain`t ready for that yet.

I love a good fight, so I can relate to the buck...he is awesome!!!

The picture is fantastic. The only way to get that kind of lighting is with snow.

Happy day Walt...many happy returns!

Tim - "Snow already?  My thoughts are; It's abut time we got some snow, it came late this year.
   
Snag - No kitties with this bow, just 6-8 eight deer and a bison.

Everybody, thanks again for the complements.  I do love hunting in the snow, it absorbs many of the sounds and makes for a quiet, peaceful, and relaxing hunt. Also, it can make a bad photographer like myself look decent.  

I received few of questions regarding how the back of the bow was camo-ed, so here is how it was done:  Finished the bow with eight-ten coasts of tru-oil, hunted with it for a couple of years and decided it was to shinny after spooking a couple of critters (at times I'm a slow learner).  I spray painted the back with the cheapest (99 cents) flat black paint I could find, then five minutes later took 220 grit sand paper to the newly applied paint until it looked good and I thought would work.  Note, though I did rough up the tru-oil, I did not sand trough the finish.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.
