    Got my first deer with a bow (button buck) while hunting from a ground blind this past weekend!!! Was shooting my new 2014 Diamond core pulling 55 lbs an slinging Easton Bloodline Realtree 480's with 100 grain NAP Thunderheads and Blazer Quickfletch vanes, nailed him just a tad forward of the lungs at 20yrds and cut thru a ton of major blood vessels, he ran around 100 yards an crashed while i watched... i waited an hour before going to track him, the blood trail looked like someone took a red paint can an walked thru the woods dumping it! he was still slightly alive when i walked up to him so i drilled him thru the heart with a 10 yard shot to finish him off quickly, Super pumped and cant wait to get another one!!!

    Bowhunt or Die! :)

    You should get a European mount done, it would be cool to have a button buck skull. It will be trophy you will remember for the rest of you life!
