First deer with bow

[LanceS4803]

I took up archery as a kid and dabbled with bowhunting with a Bear Kodiak back when I was 18. But, no luck. (With no mentor, it took a while to figure out that wind direction was important.)
I continued to shoot for fun over the years, even taking my gear on a one year trip to Korea, courtesy of the Army.
After taking deer over the years with all manner of weapons, I finally decided this year to actually go back to bow hunting. Time to retire the Browning Safari. I bought a used Hoyt and fancy carbon arrows to get me in business.
After 34 years, I was back in the woods with a bow, after the elusive suburban Clarksville deer.
A 125gr Thunderhead, high angle double lung, and I'm hooked again.

Congrats. There is no greater feeling than filling the freezer with stick and a string.

Awesome. I have been bow hunting since 1985 and maybe dabbled a bit with it before then.

I went through a period where I lost interest in bow hunting and only did it because it got me in the woods sooner. It lasted for several years.

This year I got rejuvinated . Bought myself a new bow that I uterly love and hit every deer I was aiming at.

I so want to go pig hunting with it now.
