First deer with crossbow

Post by brianpa »

I finally scored with my Excalibur (axe) Mag 340 or whatever they call it now.
It's just a small Doe but it's my first deer with it. Was about a 15yrd. Shot hunting on the ground with my boy. He using a original Grizzly.
I have to go back and chop my arrow out of a tree.
Well I was going to attack a picture but the forum will not let me. Oh well :?

Congrats on your deer . :)
There is nothing wrong with a doe . Antlers are only for show . You can cook them many different ways and they still taste like bone . :lol:

Congratulations! I've said it before on this forum. Every deer is a trophy! You got out there, you picked a spot, you kept cool and made the shot and now you will be eating venison. It's the same wonderful experience for all of us. Way to go!

Be proud of your success!! :thumbup:
