First Buck & Kill ever!!!

Post by thelopeztribe »

Thanks to everyone that provided guidance/advice, etc. I got my first kill at the end of the season and wow this boy was heavy!!!

Nobody told me how much of a workout it is....ha ha. Any way, I now know I need to invest in a good knife or knives for gutting/skinning.

Congrats on a nice buck and welcome to the club. I wish I could experience what you did again. It was long ago and I still remember it clearly. I envy you. Enjoy your tasties. Just out of curiosity, what are those green vines that your buck crashed into?

Thanks Hank!! Does that mean you don't hunt now? :) The green vine I believe is a greenbrier weedy vine. And those thorns hurt when I was trying to get him out of there.
