        I made the switch to traditional gear 5 years ago and I am proud to say that I have finally made a successful harvest with my recurve!! This handsome little button buck stood broadside at 15 yards for me and I made a perfect shot with a clean pass through. I am very thankful, 2016 has been a great hunting season for my friends and family:D

          What is your setup that you used?

          God Bless

                        My first was also a button buck. It sits proudly as a shoulder mount on my wall and I have as much respect for that deer as I do all the big deer I have been blessed with. Fine job!!

                              Thanks everybody. Sorry that it took so long to get back with you. My bow is a 48# Bear Grizzly. My arrows are Carbon Express with 5 gpi weight tubes and 145gr 4 blade Steel Force African Phathead and the total arrow weight is around 630gr. I actually put these arrows together for my elk trip and a different bow. When I got back, it occurred to me that I had neglected to prepare for whitetail season, so I shot these arrows out of the Grizzly and they shot great from it as well. Thanks again for the congrats everybody. I look forward to posting more pictures of future hunts!!
