Old Shakespeare Kaibab. Snuffer 125 with a 125 steel insert. He went 30 yds and stopped. Tipped over in under 10 seconds, dead in under 30. #tradforlife

Awesome! Any buck with a traditional bow is a trophy in my book!

Wait, I thought there were no bow hunters on this site. And how come you didn’t use some super high speed low drag infrared thermal heat sensing self sharpening don’t ask no questions bout’ my bow hunting expertise new fangled better than everybody else’s gear. Besides everybody knows you can’t kill anything with a bow that was built in the 60’s. I think you’re pulling our leg.
Just kidding of course. Job well done. Shart things could take a lesson.

Thank you all. I shot my first trad buck with that same bow 20+ years ago off the ground. I was using cedars then but the broadhead was the same. There's been a lot of bows in between and several others I love but that Shakespeare just fits me perfectly. I actually bought an exact match to it to keep in reserve in case I ever blow this one up.

Congrats! I wish I could that do in Germany. But bowhunting is illegal over here. How old is the bow? Are you the first owner?
