Good Luck NY Bowhunters

Thank you. You gotta love it when they drop 10 yards from where they were shot, and 250 yards from your back door.

I haven't seen ANY rubs or scrapes hereabouts or any bucks at all in my scouting. Been a wierd year weatherwise.

Stone Knife - Congrats on a nice doe in some tuff weather conditions!

Stumpkiller - Nice shooting! Congrats!

This will be my first chance to hunt this morning, heading out in a little while. Good luck to all!

Congrats Charlie. A great shot & some tastey vittles. The only scrape I have seen is the one I have made. Some deer are visiting it though. No rubs found so far. Keep at it guys.

I drew blood today as well, but Brian you da man! I made a flesh wound on a doe this morning. She jumped my string and arrow sailed right over her back! Took two hairs and a very small amount of blood on my arrow. What a rush! Amazing how she just dropped under the arrow. She was standing broadside and looked right at me as I was picking a spot. I could feel here eyes increasing in size as I realeased. Thought it was a complete miss the way she blew out of there and seeing the arrow sail over her back. When I was retrieving my arrow I knocked the dirt off my grizzly broadhead, and noticed a small smear and two hairs caught under the lead end of the feather. I know she is a little smarter now, but that's hunting right? I'll be out there tomorrow to see how much smarter...

Again congrats, Brian! Continue the fight brothers and sisters.

Cyclic-Rivers · October 16, 2011, 07:19:00 PM

Brian, That's awesome! congrats on your 1st deer.

Stone Knife · October 16, 2011, 07:21:00 PM

Hey Brian way to go! your first trad deer? awesome Brother...†

2Blade · October 16, 2011, 07:29:00 PM

Nice shooting fellas glad to see someone got em!!! I didnt see a deer first day I think due to the rain and wind. I opted to leave last night a little early in fear of making a shot and losing the blood trail. Seen 3 does today but went the other way at 35 yards but that had my heart going for a minute! Maybe tomorrow!

way to go Charlie and Brian

Keep after them Casey you will get it done :0)
I shot a nice doe this evening with the whisperstik mojo and my bamboo arrows I made . I will try to get a pic up.

Catskill Longbow · October 16, 2011, 08:20:00 PM

Real windy here. I haven't been shooting so I didn't go out, but my son did. Not much going on in our notch this weekend.

Brian, Congrats on your first deer!

Zmonster · October 16, 2011, 08:26:00 PM

Woohoo Drew too! Heck yeah! Man no kidding, what a opening weekend! Congrats bro! Can't wait for the story!

Charlie you too? How did you do?

drewsbow · October 16, 2011, 08:38:00 PM

Broke my dang arrow but hey what the heck:0)

Cyclic-Rivers · October 16, 2011, 08:39:00 PM

Awesome news Drew.

Casey, I think Drew was referring to Charlie aka stumpkiller.

I was in some public land. I didn't see any deer this weekend but that's normal for this piece.

I think you need a faster bow if you have deer that can duck your arrows

Good luck Casey stay after them.

drewsbow · October 16, 2011, 08:41:00 PM

Yup You got it Charlie
