***Daily Hunt Pics 2004***

I posted this pic in another post but its fits here well.  



My bow is 62 NTN for a reference.  

I'd like to see him.

Well, I had a BIG, BIG, BIG eight pointer at 25 yards Saturday afternoon. I stopped him with a couple of bleats, but it was too open under me and he knew there weren't any deer there. He stood watching for a good 3 minutes before turning. Biggest bodied deer I've ever seen in the woods and his rack had great mass.

I decided to go look for hogs Sunday morning and 5 minutes after hitting the swamp, I saw a group of small boars. Circled downwind and shot the biggest one (75 pounder) as he crossed by me in the palmettos at 12 feet. I guess he was the consolation prize for not getting the buck.



Here's a link to some other pictures I have from my trip to BlackBeard Island off the coast of Georgia a couple of weeks ago.

Nice hog, 12 foot shot, that's what I call up close and personal.

Thanks Warren,
BlackBeard Island is the longest running Federal Bowhunt in the Nation. This was my first year and we had a blast. We plan to make it an annual trip. Everyone in our group had shots, four out of the five had multiple shots. Can't ask for much more than that on a bowhunt.

By the way, I really enjoyed your video and the hunting notes on your site. I've been "Field Quartering" for a couple of years now and can't imagine dragging one out anymore.

Chris, I'm glad to hear that you were satisfied with the video. Yea, I don't drag deer. To fast & easy to fieldquarter and pack.

Years ago, probably in the early 70's, I read an article in a magazine about at hunt at Black Beard Island. One of the hunters on that hunt took, what I remember to be, his 36th deer with a bow. At the time, that many bowkills was unheard of. I was really impressed with the article and have always been interested in the island.

Once again, I really enjoyed the pictures that you took.

Thank You

My hunting partnet Theo Reichart and I just got back from our annual New York State bowhunt (Catskills), I took this doe at 7 yards and Theo shot his buck at 8, on our last day Theo also took a small doe on our DMP permit. I love New York !!! [/IMG]  [/IMG]

I haven't been posting much so I thought this was a good opportunity. I really enjoy seeing what you all see from day to day so here I go.

Early Sunday morning.

 This one came along about 10:30 Sunday morning. I saw a larger buck earlier in the day and decided to hold out and not take the shot on this one. He was 8-yards and didn't have a clue I was even around. Check out the shadow behind him.



 Hope I don't regret this one latter.
 
 Good Luck and hunt safe. Steve

Since this is my favorite thread and it's getting close to going to page 2, I thought I would find something to post.

This is a deer that I killed on this day, 30 years ago. Yep, it was my 15th bowkill and it was on November 10, 1974.

I was able to close the distance to 35 yards for a shot at 10:25. The hit was less than perfect but very leathal. The deer only traveled 60 yard.

My bow was a 58", 55 pound, Browning Explorer. Back then I didn't know any better and was using sight pins.

Ain't old pictures great?

On Monday I took this doe. However, my camera batteries were low and I couldn't take a picture in the woods. So here's the gamepole pic. I was shooting an Osage Selfbow that I made from a stave that I traded for at Mojam two years ago. The stave's owner was Mickey Miller of Dallas. So I named the bow MickeyMouse, kind of a skinny sliver type bow. Rivercane arrow. Magnus Head. Traveled 30 yards after the hit. FD 128# Ralph
