Just sheds so far for this guy. I’m sure there are LC but people might be shy to post their harvests in the heat in case they upset the peanut gallery haha.

Friend came down for a saturday night decoy session. Couple almost in ranges. He had to head for home so I went on a solo mission. Saw bucks getting run off so figured good time to get creative. Walked my way thru some cattle and that guy stayed 26yds out. Such a fun hunt. Good luck to all arrow slingers.

very nice! Very impressive to me to be able to creep into 15 yards of a deer. I sound like a scared gorilla still, lol.

Amazing evening in the stand this year for my second whitetail, thought my heart pounding was gonna spook him when he walked 20yds out from me with a bunch of does and spikers

Also I’ll add, we used a recipe off youtube for the liver from the Scott Rea project, “stalkers breakfast”, highly recommend it

Was a good morning yesterday. Was at the butcher an hour after his last breath. Should be some fantastic suppers in the near future! What a day.

Default 2024 Archery Harvest Thread!!! Post your pics and stories here!

Just got back from our archery antelope hunt! What a riot.

We were able to coax one in on the first day that I was lucky enough to make good on the shot:



On the third day my buddy Mark made a great shot on another buck that came into the decoy:


What a fun trip.. won’t wait 15 years for the next archery antelope hunt!

2024 archery antelope in the books, first buck to properly decoy. I didn’t have much luck with them charging right in, very timid. Very cool buck, by far not the biggest I seen but very happy.

Yeah, Wolf he's going to score pretty good with what he has. Three circumferences under the prong.
