Nice job! I am hoping to head out in the next couple weeks with my Bow. First time for me the kneepads are a great idea. I know last year rifle hunting they would be useful lots of prickly cactus where i hunt as well.

Knee pads are pretty much a must IMO. I left them in the truck the first day. Gotta be a little more careful when ya put that knee down at!

For sure. Is that a heads up decoy? I was thinking about buying one as well. Good success?

Thanks Dana! Bet you're pumped to be getting back home!
Muddawg. Yes it is a Heads Up Decoy. I've had pretty good success with it. The timing has to be right for them to come charging in but it does good as a confidence thing too.

Killed this guy after he worked a scrape last night. I have mixed feelings being done this early, but I still get to take my 14 year old son out to try to get him his first archery deer.

Nice deer guys! Things been slow east river for me(finally saw a shooter though)so headed west river to hunt river bottoms for a few days last week.Wow,they've had rain n the grass n weeds are high!!!Anyway got set up and zeroed in on some deer n then the rain came.The steep dirt roads down to the river became impossible gumbo n ended up having to head home leaving stands and a ground blind behind. Yesterday morn left home about 2 AM and was in a stand down there by dawn.Shot this big bodied 10 a few hours later n then the fun began.Face it,I'm getting too old to do this by myself.Wish his body had been smaller n horns bigger but.... Now back to work east river. Good hunting!

Sidenote to answer couple Qs:It is the exit hole showing.Hit was not a perfect angle,deer stopped while at full draw,but entry hole was just behind shoulder on other side. Deer jumped n went few paces,stood there about 5 seconds,coughed once,then fell over.Never found the arrow.

My wife also got her first deer with a bow in about 4 years. First South Dakota buck she got with her bow. Very exciting hunt. Grunted him in across an open field and she got a perfect broadside shot at 36 yards. Buck piled up within sight of our stand. Its amazing what a 20 week pregnant woman will set out to accomplish!!! Very proud of her.
