Crossgun or compound

Shot 1 buck in fall bow and 4 does this season. Compound bow (I’m a Mathews elitist along with @JHbowhunter) wind outta the northwest for the buck and bait was about 80 yards away I had to hunt a different tree for the wind. It was approximately 4:45 pm on October 23rd

Fall bow permit and shot gun and the best deer I ever got with my 5 year old

My normal amount of freezer filling does, my "White Deer" and the most special of them all Bugs got her 1st.

Overall a fantastic season with a lot of memories made.

Down year for me - only had one shooter all summer fall and winter and took him late summer on 9/15 so lots of days of nothing to hunt but still enjoyed the possibility of a rut surprise that never materialized.  Took my EAB doe as usual and a winter doe so hit my freezer target of 3 deer.  At least the buck I got was a real good one - very proud of it, was a very nail biting exciting hunt and made a good 23 yard heart shot - very rewarding. I am looking forward to getting the mount back. 
 

Conditions were very light East  wind which is exactly what I needed along with cooler 65 degree falling temps.  Victory Decimator arrows tipped with 125 gr razor sharp Magnus Black Hornet BH’s shot out of 60 lb Mathews TRIAX.  Good meat on that buck - 194# dressed if I recall

Good thing I know you - I don’t like strangers touching my rack!

I never leave my racks at the taxidermist . Bring them home and get to enjoy them until my cape comes back .

once the cape comes in I run it back out , then have it back home a few weeks later .

I had some pain in my right elbow and left shoulder so I decided not to aggravate things by shooting my bow. Shot a small buck in Idaho on river bottom public land in October. Then a decent nj public land buck during 6day followed by a fat public land doe.
