After hours and hours of practice - it all paid off tonight when I arrowed a mature doe with my recurve. I shot her with my Iron Mountain recurve 46# @ 26" - Gold Tip arrow with a Magnus head. After sitting through 3 hours of constant wind this ol' girl snuck in behind me and fed on some acorns. When she got to 25 yards I let the arrow fly and it found it's mark - right behind the shoulder and lodged in the far shoulder. She only ran about 60 yards and I watched her go down. What a thrill. I don't think I have ever been so excited over a harvest - I am still on cloud 9!!

Way to go Sharris10. First trad kill at 25 yards. That's not just a chip shot. Pat yourself on the back for doing all that practice this summer! Good looking arrows. Enjoy the moment.
