1st meat

[mscampbell75]

Finally!!

After a few misses last season and a lot of off season practicing, I've scored!!

This season as been very eventfull.  I'm seeing plenty of deer.  Two weeks ago, I made took a shot at a deer.  I thought it was a good hit but after a 150yrd blood traking and coming up empty.  I was upset to say the least.  Found it two days later thanks to the buzzards.  It ran another 150yrds from my last blood, it went down in a cotton field.  This was technically my 1st trad kill but not the way I was hoping for.

Fast forward to this afternoon.  Couple does came in around 6:15.  I waited on the larger of the two to give me a shot.  First shot (15yrds) was a spine shot.  She went down.  Did a follow up shot to finish.  A zero yrd tracking.  This time I get the proper celebration and most importantlly, I will be eatin backstraps next weekend and have some burgers.  Yummmmmmmm!    

Thank you TradGang!

Nice job I love and hate spine shots I feel bad a doctor told me one time that a severe spine should be painless made me feel a bit better.
