LifeNRA Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Congrats on your first bowkill! Nothing to be ashamed of. If anybody in this place that has killed a number of deer says it hasn't happened to them, they're full of it. You said it yourself, it was a great learning experience and you learned a bunch from the experience, that's what matters. Again, congrats on getting the skunk off your back, they'll come a bit easier now... LOL--ditto with Randy. Nothing to be ashamed of. A bowkill is a bowkill. And I have news for you, buttons are some good eating. What they said! Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyperflow Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 best deer meat you can get period, If here we had more then 1 tag id shoot a fawn forsure. 1: because he has less chance to make it trew are harsh canadien winters and 2: its just great eating meat.

Rem308 Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Hey, don't ever be ashamed of a deer taken w/ archery that was a clean kill. Sure some may 'razz' ya a little, but it's all in good fun. Congrats on the kill, be proud of it. I look forward to seeing the next one you take, way to go.

MCH Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Nothing wrong with a legal harvest. Congrats! BTW--I'm nominating the Ohiobuck's post for post of the decade.

Guest cole1966 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 That sounds like my first bowkill. The hardest deer is the first one! No shame, every time out is a learning experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. Chris' expression is priceless in that second pic. Man, I killed that deer dead. First deer with the Rage. Perfect, quartering away, right through the off shoulder, dead in 15 seconds. Mom was lucky she stayed under the beech tree branches because I really wanted her.

Guest FARDAWG Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Congradulations!!!!!!!! You are now qualified to be a member of the prestigious organization of the famous Scrubmasters. Dedicated to the managing of the whitetails not so desirable for the average hunter. Heck I have seen someone take a spotted deer before. I guess he took it literially when someone told him to pick a spot and shoot. We have all taken deer that we shouldn't have but thats the lesson of life. Live and learn. I bet that knothead will eat really good though. I can almost smell him cooking, MMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!! No shame in taking a deer mistaken as a Doe. Happens all the time. It's not a good feeling but it happens. Enjoy the meat...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Born4it Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 It's not pathetic at all! Everybody accidentally shoots button bucks..heck, some people shoot them for meat! Great eating! It's a deer, it was taken legally, and it sounds like everything you did was ethical! Congrats on your first bowkill! Take care, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flintlock1776 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Congrats on your first deer. There are others that still have to cross that threshold. Trophy should always be whatever the shooter feels is right. Sounds like you got your first trophy of many to come. Post a pic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
