All year long I have read all of your stories and seen posted pictures

I had visulized these moment for a long time , and never did I imagine I was going to be as pleased as I am now

I wanted a good buck but any buck with my long bow would have been a trophy

I placed my ground blind on Friday in the middle of the day in a place where there was a lot of deer sign

My first morning in the blind this buck came walking by 6.5 year old 8 point buck , the rest is in the pictures

Bob lee signature long bow with short 15 riser 53@27 with mfx beeman classic arrows and 125gr snuffers (these are great!!!!) they do whistle but make a lot of damage

One of the higlights of the hunt is that the deer ran only 60 yds,

at first I taught I had hit him a little to the left but the arrow got both of the lungs and the main arteries to the heart.

I still waited 3 hrs to search for him because of previous bad experiences
and found the boken arrow  at 6 yds where I had shot him, the blood trail was abundant and the buck was close by, I belive he died some minutes after the shot

Awsome! That is a great first deer! how far was the shot?

Gerardo

the shot was at 10 yards , I placed a pop up blind and the sun was coming up from behind me so he took some time coming in but gave me a very close shot

An old hand me down recurve sparked the fire, Trad Gang fanned the flames.  There is no stopping now.  Burn baby burn!

Wow, Gerardo,
What a hoss of a buck. I didn't realize that bucks got that heavy in Mexico, how much did he weigh?? I see Texas Bucks in photos and none have looked near that heavy. Nice trophy, I am jealouse with envy!
