First selfbow kill
« on: October 10, 2015, 10:30:45 pm »
Finally got me one tonight. I had this deer come out of the thick stuff at 20 yds  heading at me. I grabbed my bow and stood up and the deer was at 10 pretty much broadside. Next thing I know the arrow was buried to the fletchings in the deer right where I was looking. It took off on a dead run and made it about 40 yds before piling up. Although it was a self bow kill the bow was not made by me. Arvin Weaver crafted my fine bow. Grizzly broadhead was used and a poc arrow that I made. Arvin if your reading this Im still loving my bow. Man I hope I can build one this good once I start whittling On my staves I got drying.

Congratulations! I'm trying for my first selfbow kill this winter. Reading these threads gets me pumped!
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short. Amen.

Congratulations Arrow.  I know your feelings. I took my first primitive deer this season.  Breath it in.  It feels good.

Good clean kill.  Thanks for doing it right!
