Chris’ 2007 Archery Buck
Posted by bowhunter on October 30th, 2007
Welcome to my new blog, which, obviously, will be all about whitetail deer hunting. I hope to share some of my personal insights into archery hunting, in particular, and on deer and deer management. But right now, I am still just trying to figure out how to run a blog and get the ball rolling.
I figured a good first post would be these photos of my 8-point buck, which I was fortunate to take Oct. 26 in Lehigh County, Pa. This is not the biggest buck you will find on the Web, but I think it’s a real pretty deer and I couldn’t pass it up. I actually missed a doe about 15 minutes before he showed up, and I never would have had the opportunity for this buck had I not screwed up. Those does walked up to a nearby field and he came tearing across after them. Next thing I knew, he was coming down the hill straight for my stand!
As you see, we also had a trail camera photo of this same deer over the summer, and you can see what a beautiful, symmetrical rack he has. He’s going to look great on the wall, and the family will be enjoying some welcome protein this winter.

Whoah. Nice buck. Welcome to OutdoorsBlogger, feel free to holler if you have any questions about setting up shop…
Cheers
