Let an arrow fly this evening!
 

Stuck a nice 9 pointer this evening, 17 yards!

Nice one! Thick neck - still in rut?

Man, look at the greenery! Is it springtime there?

It’s just never winter here!

Very solid second rut looking deer. Bow hunting is great and with today's compound bows including sighting systems and release mechanisms the accuracy and consistency is incredible. Hunting with Flintlocks is harder and more trouble than today's archery.

Good shot, Mark...Joe

After 20 years of shooting 100gr Thunderheads, two years ago I started shooting SlickTrick Magnum 100gr. They are deadly, and literally fly identically to my fieldpoints, which Thunderheads never did.

That is the thing about archery, its having consistency and control in the variables. The guys like Fred Bear and Pearson, not to mention native americans, were just dang good at it because they did it all the time. Nowadays you can get a bow almost as dialed in as a crossbow for a casual shooter, hence the popularity. Its still challenging but a heck of a lot easier than it ways.

I think archery technology of today from re-curve bows evolved in similar fashion as to black powder muzzle loading guns to hammer guns with cartridges.

Stud of a buck!

Nice buck Tx!! Hope you used a Parker to skewer him!! I like my Parker guns AND bows!!

Great buck congratulations.

+1 on the SlickTrick broadheads.
