Nice job Ryan, That is a fine deer.  My only complaint is that ugly quiver stuck on the side of one of your beautiful bows. ;D

That sucks. They just initiated the antler restrictions around here so most counties we can kill four deer, some five. Luckily I hunt in one of the five deer counties. All my life, it's been two does and one buck till now.

Might not be a Wall-Hanger Ryan...but I have never been a Trophy Hunter....and I would have not let this one passed either...going to be a Lot Better Eating than the one You got last Year...thats for sure!! Congrats on the Clean Kill
As a species we're fundamentally insane. Put more than two of us in a room, we pick sides and start dreaming up ways to kill one another.Why do you think we invented politics and religion.

Great job Ryan!  That's a dandy buck in anyone's book, and the fact that you got it with primitive equipment, well, that makes it even more special.  Next time, you need to get one with a stone point!!  haha...jsut kiddin dude, I know you've had some bad luck with them in the past, I was just razzing ya...

  Sweet Ryan, and good Eats. I got a little doe last weekend. The lease I'm on has 10 doe permits. We can shoot a buck a day till the end of the season, mid Jan. Thanksgiving week is Doe week on private property. I'm taking vacation that week. We can shoot one a day for 7 days.

Thanks everyone. It's been a tough year up here for some reason.... I've hunted days at a time with out even seeing a tail. He was only the 5th deer I've seen on stand since the season started and the first one I could get a reasonable shot at. I don't know why but it seems the majority of the deer movement has been after dark this year. With the very limited time I had to hunt this year with my new job and all I am happy just get one.  :) And Billy I probably will try a stone point again someday.....

Here's a picture of him alive about 5 yards from where he was when I shot him.

Very nice buck!! I'm impressed with the Hawthorne bow and it is giving me an idea. I have a Hawthorne log right beside the old shed. And again excellent job!!

Good job Ryan. I wont let any legal ones past if I have a good shot. nubby bucks are my favorite  ;D. If I have the choice to shoot a nubby or a 12 point buck I will shoot the nubby no question ;)
