He didnt have an arrow,his bow went "bang" but heres were all the deer pics are!! He deserves a spot in the backwoods trophy room
 
Thanks Bill. My son had a great time hunting especially since this was his first deer kill. My wife and I are driving him back to college today (he's a Bio-Chemistry (Pre Medicine) major in the Honors Program at Ohio State University (Columbus).
 
Hey, anyone still shooting their bows. I'm moving to AZ so I can shoot more often. Hope this thread keeps up.

sure i sling arrows quite often, im shooting a mathews z7 magnum now very nice rig
 
Bill,

Just did a little research on the Swhacker. Looks interesting. I used to shoot fix blades. Lost some deer with them. Lot better luck with Rage. I'll give Swhacker a look. I drove myself nuts for awhile changing broadheads.
Do the Swhackers shoot like a fieldpoint?

nice buck. i have a buddy that is going out to Ohio on thursday for his annual hunting trip.
 
I love shooting my bow, I dont have any good pictures right now, but I will post some in a few days

I shoot a reflex growler compound with PSE predator arrows with 55# pull
an old bear kodiak magnum 48 recurve with 45# pull
an old pearson andan old mustang recurves.

i'll have to get some pictures for yall, i love the old bows when I can get a good deal on them
 
I love archery but I haven't done any in very many years. I was on the archery team in college, using bows without wheels on them, NAA or FITA rules. We used to shoot 40-80 arrows almost every day. Back then the best target bow was the Hoyt Takedown II and I still have mine. I bought a compound and got into field archery using NFAA rules. This was one of my favorite sports, I can't really explain why I got out of it but to do it well it took a lot of time. I never was interested in hunting with a bow though.
 
Went out last night.Was windy 25 mph with gust to 40 mph.Saw 5 does.The 5th one gave me a broadside shot.Double lunged her and watched her drop.That is 2 deer in the freezer this year.Have one more tag.going to try and tag out before gun season starts!

i hear that brother i just smoked a couple myself, people better be learning to live off the land,instead of living in and out of the stores,i feel everything is gonna have a scary price tag before long
 
Thats a good deer.
Finally I am going to hunt in Ohio for the first time in about 15 years. My brother has a nice 400 acre lease up in pierpont. Going up on the 29th of november. I will have to put down my rifle for this one I guess.....
 
Hello, Just found this thread. Bowhunting junkie myself. Shooting a mathews helium last year. Kind of a poor year for me.We got hit pretty hard with EHD. Found three deer on my small place and others neighboring 4 or 5. Got a nice size spike early. Decided he needed removed. Hit a nice doe some time later and was a poor quartering away shot. Very disappointed i did not recover. Passed on some other small bucks. No big ones seen except on opening day. This season is over for me but i am getting excited for next already. I purchased a book Idiot proof archery. Good read. I will be trying to improve my shot sequence so its automatic when the deer shows up. Its based on a back tension release. Ready to get out and do some shed hunting next month. Also would like to get all my stand prep done early in the spring so i can do nothing but shoot till season starts.
Doug
