Blacktailed sucess!!

I connected on a Willamette valley blacktail! I missed TB a few minutes before (Named him Taxidermy Bill). I never really understood short bows and why you would want one. I do now. ](*,) When I shot at him my wheel of my bow hit my rail of my climbing tree stand and the arrow went into space as did my dream of TB. But, this buck followed a few minutes later!! I did not make the same mistake twice. :) Oh and if you look close at TB on my trail cam photo, he is five on this side and four on the other and at least 18 wide. This buck is huge for the valley. Maybe next year...

Up here in the Willamette Valley. I hunt in the Mckenzie unit mainly. Yes, TB is a toad. I hope he lives threw another season for the late hunt again next year! Where are you hunting?

I hunt the Evans Creek unit. However with the recent increase to non-residents tags and licenses this might have been my last year.
