That is a big doe. Congrats and great shot. The first one is always special. I bet you'll have PBJ on every hunting trip now.

Afterall, PBJ is my specialty!! I did at least take the time to finish it off before getting down to dress the deer. She fell within sight so tracking her was more of a ceremonial process than anything else.

This is the first deer I've killed that didn't have "ground shrinkage". When I got to her, I was surprised by her size. Her head looked huge.

I also knew that I had my work cut out to get her out of the woods and to my truck. I'm sore today but it was worth every bit of it.

I appreciate all of the congrats, I am honored.

I don't know why, but a bowkill feels waaaaaaay better than a gunkill.
Congrats!

Yesterdays doe was deer # 15 for me. I went about 8 years without hunting until last year.....which I was skunked. My muzzleloader kill about 2 weeks ago was cool because it had been 8 years since my last one but really didn't seem that special to me.

My bowkill yesterday feel like my first kill back when I was a teenager. Other than my muzzleloader kill earlier this month, I can really only remember, vividly, 1 hunt. It was my first ever kill which was a small 8pt buck. I think 15 years from now I'll still remember this bowkill the same way.
