first bowkill!!!

[fisher2]

It's not a trophy by anybody elses standards but who really cares.

 

Today i got into my blind and around 17:18 ( i say around but this is exact times) i noticed 3 deer headed across the field at 126.5 yards so i got up when they went blind to try to cut them off on other side of scrub, i got over there...and got busted, looked over at my blind...of course theres a deer 30 yards from it walked slowly back over to my blind sat down doe had disappeared. Couple minutes went by and i heard crashing in woods next to blind so i drew back and started looking since i knew it'd be coming fast i looked to left and there was the deer RUNNING TO ME i sat up it stopped and went to turn and run and i shot it at that moment, the shot distance was a measured 11 feet 6 inches from me to where it dug its foot into dirt. So it took of back into the woods it went about 21 yards before crashing got up went 3 more yards and hit its head on a tree and went down and never got back up. the time was now 17:36 after 2 minutes of not moving i decided to get up and climb the tree and watch the deer thru binocs and no chest movement so i climbed down, hands first hit deer at 17:41

Congrats I took a button buck this year so far in NH don't let anyone tell you that is not a trophy

every deer I get is a trophy in my eyes I have meat in the freezer!

As far as I am concerned they are the best eating

You'll get better at field dressing with the more you do it. Make the proper cuts and take out anything you don't want to eat.

[fisher2]

most of it turned out to be  a matter of walking the line of thinking about it before cutting  just stop and think before getting nervous and making mistakes

Congrats!
