Default My First deer (by bow)

A while back Justin started a thread about his first deer with a bow. I knew I had pics of mine somewhere, but couldn't find them. Well I cleaned out my hunting closet and found them earlier this week. So here is my first deer, 147 pound doe taken on Oct 21, 1995. The hole in her neck is from a follow up shot. She was hit a little far back and I found her bedded in a brush pile. The only shot I had was from the rear, so I hit her high in the back and it exited the hole in her neck. The bow was a Clearwater, I remember it weighed a ton,don't know what happened to the company.

I think it is most fun looking back at the old equipment. They hadn't quit heard of parallel limbs back in those days.

Cool Pic Jmbuck, David Powers owned Clearwater, David was quite the 3D shooter, Joey Vaughn who now owns Stone Mountian Bowstrings and was also quite the 3D shooter and Las Vegas Champion, Probably made the limbs for that bow. Pretty cool!!!
