Got my first traditional bow kill (video)
I've been shooting a recurve bow since I was 9 years old. I started bow hunting when I was 14. I've taken deer with a compound bow and crossbow, but I never got anything with a recurve until yesterday. Up until that point, the largest buck I'd ever gotten with a bow was a spike. I'm not a "trophy" hunter, this buck was just the first thing that gave me a shot. I would have been just as happy with a doe. When I found the deer, I just about broke down.

Words cannot express how thankful I am for this experience. I feel truly blessed. Self filming any hunt is difficult, as is hunting from the ground, and hunting with traditional equipment too. To have everything come together and have success is beyond my simple words to express.
