Hey guys, here's a deer I shot last night with my bow. This is my 2nd bow kill, I'm getting pretty hooked on it! We would've recovered it last night, but a coon hound "joined up" with us when it saw our lights, and followed the blood trail alot quicker than us and messed up the blood trail, plus our lights died, so we went back this morning and after some trailing we found it. My brother got pretty good film of the hunt, but I don't know how to post the video! Here's a couple pics.. Fresh backstrap galore! Thanks for looking! Ben

Nice job. You are well stocked for dinners now.

I'd rather have a bad day hunting than a good day working!

Good job. I'm thinking that hound would have taken you right to it the next morning. Especially with archery, it's nice to have a dog to help at times.

If being stupid allows me to believe in Him, I'd wish to be a retard. Eisenhower and G Washington should be good company.

Very nice! Glad to see that there are Hoosiers that can kill a deer with a bow...as I sure couldn't this year.

It's great to see young men out, enjoying the sport of hunting and being able to take a deer that isn't a monster. Your smiles make me envious of just how much you enjoy life, don't let that change.
Good luck and great hunting...

Sounds like you and your brother really enjoy time in the field together. You both should have great hunting partners for years to come!
It looks like you're already doing it, but keep taking plenty of pictures. You'll cherish those...and they'll become your trophies later in life...
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

Thanks for the kind words guys! I'm planning on taking a whole backstrap to my Mom's family's shindig on Saturday... Educate them on how good eatin' wild game is!
