Target Practice For Pope & Young Buck

<target practice for Pope & Young buck I have decided to set a deer hunting goal for myself, to harvest a Pope & Young buck with a bow. I have harvested quite a few deer with a bow and arrow, but never a real mature trophy whitetail buck. It is a challenge that I am determined to accomplish. So today I am getting my bow out and I am going to start practicing. So when deer season rolls around this year I will be prepared. I am currently in the process of looking for a new compound bow and I found a website that is really neat. You can go to it here. They have ready to hunt compound bow packages that are set up right out of the box, paper tuned and everything. They are set up to your specifications and ready. I have been working 9 hours a day 6 days a week, and I have a two year old son and a nine month old son. I just don’t have a lot of time to spare. So this is a good deal for me already being tuned and ready. I just thought some of you may be interested in checking out their site. They have some great deals on really nice bows.I had shoulder surgery a while back, and I need to get my shoulder muscles back used to shooting a bow. I enjoy shooting from different heights and distances and I try to practice with gloves on, like when I am actually deer hunting. Year before last, I had a definite Pope and Young buck at twenty five yards broadside, I didn’t realize there was another deer watching me and when I went to draw my bow back, it blew at me and the party was over. I was so close to harvesting a buck of a lifetime with my bow, but I just didn’t close the deal. Now I am more determined than ever to harvest a Pope & Young buck. And today I am going to start practicing to achieve that goal.

Have you ever harvested a mature trophy buck with a bow and arrow? I have came  so close a few times and just haven’t done it. I am planning on deer hunting more and more with my bow and less with my rifle. I am currently still using an older bow with aluminum arrows. I want to new one so bad I can’t stand it. Right now I am going to pull out my old one and go shoot a few aluminum arrows. Maybe with a lot of practice and some preparation I can get that big whitetail buck with my bow this year.

  1. This sounds like a great goal for yourself. I think there is something to be said for bow hunters. I hope you kill that trophy buck with your bow!

  2. Thanks, for the comment. I appreciate it. Maybe this will be the year for me. Even if I don’t, I love just being able to spend time in the great outdoors. I have been very blessed to be able to spend time in the outdoors through the years. And it is wonderful being out in the woods and enjoying the beauty of nature.

  3. I’ve never shot a mature deer with my bow, but I have still enjoyed every deer I shot with it. I think shooting any deer with a bow is a trophy experience.

    Good luck this year at accomplishing your goal!
