I got my first deer with a long bow tonight. I knew the bow was quiet, but after i shot her once, she took a few steps closer to me and looked back at the arrow, giving me a second shot. first shot was at 15 yards and a double lung shot. second shot was at about 13 and took out her heart. she walked a couple more yards and layed down.
i was using a Holm-Made Osprey longbow 46Lbs with magnus 2 blade broadheads.

Congrats on a fine deer.
Nice ! Were you sitting on the ground, in a tree, silent hunting :readit: :clapper:
Way to go. You will be hooked now!
Sometimes the stealth of a longbow is the key to success. Or at least a short blood trail!
Congrats on your first deer with your longbow!
Good job! Congrats!! :thumbsup:
Awsome!
Congrats on a good hunt. I like the combination of set up your using also. Very simular to what I am using in bow weight, 2 blade and short longbow. Thanks for filling us in.

Gotta love a man who hunts in blue jeans. Good job, Jamie. Chad
Marvelous!!!! :archer:
Excellent :clapper: I've hunted from the ground almost exclusively for the past decade and love those straight through, double lung hits. They make short trails. Well done.
nice deer, have not gotten my first one with gun or bow
Well done!
Nice deer for the table.
Not one, but TWO great shots.
Hats off to you, and many happy returns.
Great job!

Congrats! :thumbsup:
Awesome! Congrats. Reminds me of a doe I took a few years back. I was shooting a Mahaska Recurve .She was walking into a winter wheat field on a Horse Farm I had permission to hunt [best property I ever hunted]. I shot, thought I missed she just stood there at around 20 yards last light. I shot again and spined her well when I got down and walked over to her I realized I had made a perfect heart shot first shot arrow was in the ground under her.
CONGRATS ON YOUR FIRST LONGBOW DEER!!! Now your addicted.
congrats , nice job :0)
Congratulations on the traditional harvest. :cool: Pretty cool that you got two shots - even cooler that both were in the "10" ring! :thumbsup:
