Meat Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 bowhuntin is the best :thumbsup: this is my 16th bowhuntin' season, I don't hunt with my rifle anymore.... I like em no farther than 25 yards, 30 if its a big buck and he's walkin away from ya. depending on where your huntin', anything farther than a 30 yard shot is asking for trouble. 00tbanshee dont sweat the deer that got away on ya, shit happens. It happens to all bowhunters now and then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ans this is my uncles from 2005. He shot this monster outside of Golden Clorado im not tryin to bash your buck but unless i could see some more body pictures i dont think i can belive that that deer weighed 276lbs field dressed. ive seen a 220 pound deer field dressed and that thing was a hog, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheeryder_69 Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 any elk? I shot mine last weekend. I like bowhunting but I drew on a rifle tag, heck of a shot 300 yards no prop with my .270 dropped right where it stood. To give you an idea of the terrain it took us 6 hours to get it out and it was 300-350 yards away from the truck :: sucked. It was just a little 5 pont raghorn (3 years old) I will try and get some pics up. Not bad for my first elk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just a little 5 pont raghorn (3 years old) I will try and get some pics up. Not bad for my first elk. I have made 3 trips out to Colorado Elk hunting but have had no luck. My uncle has shot many with his rifle and just started hunting with his bow last year and shot one cow so far...Maybe someday I will have the same luck but I am giving up for now, Way to expensive. im not tryin to bash your buck but unless i could see some more body pictures i dont think i can belive that that deer weighed 276lbs field dressed. ive seen a 220 pound deer field dressed and that thing was a hog, Not sure why anyone would bullshit about the weight of their deer but right on.

Big Blue Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 I dont mind shooting does, I prefer to take out the older ones and I hate the statment about taking the yearlings because they are more tender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

husky Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 I actually prefer to shoot does. This is the first time in about six years I have harvested a buck. I am not much of a head hunter but I could not pass this one up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meat Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 meat we agree on somethin' . will wonders never cease. I've got a mathews drenalin on order... can't wait to get it. it's been 10 years since i've gottin' a new bow. Im shootin a Hoyt "intruder" thats about 10 years old. It was one of the first bows with a billet aluminum riser :shrug: . The old hoyt still shoots good. I havent shot a deer with my bow in three years because we don't shoot does on our property. We're tryin' to grow big buck, so the only deer getting shot are nice sized buck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
