Thought this might be interesting. If you are able, have time to kill, and don't think this an utterly stupid idea, do a search back for your first post on this site, and copy and paste it in here. I found mine from 9/23/08:
I think this was my first, in a thread asking who got the PM at HNI to join BH.com. "I got it from bigtim6656. He said you guys can all get fkuced. "
I didnt post for a few months mostly just read stuff. But this is my first one the list after doing a quick search. Nothing really exciting.
What happened?!?!? So.... yesterday morning after a crazy trip into stand and a quick rattling sequence I've got a mid 150's 8pt at 10 yards. He is slightly quartering away and just far enough out that my shot angle was still do able( the stand I was hunting is only about 12 - 15 ft high) I settled the pin and let er fly. I was horrified to see my arrow only penetrate a few inches as the buck sauntered off the arrow literally was laying flat on his back. What the heck did I hit!!!??? I have made this shot before with lethal results. After hours of searching only turning up 2 drops of blood I found the buck (minus my arrow) He seems to be healthy as a race horse as he took off back across my pasture. ( also no blood in his bed ) In short what did I hit??? The shot was a bit right or high if you will, but was not a spine shot should have been nothing but rbcage and lungs??? Looks like this was my first...
"I am a hunter in North East Pennsylvania, and finally got a decent buck on my trailcam! I only have 120 acres and he has only been seen this once, on a corner on my property, so I can not assume I will have alot of chances at this buck. Also, I would love to pass him and let him grow a year or 2, but I am sure my neighbores will not feel the same way, so in my neck of the woods he is a shooter! Plus, look how cool that rack is!!!!! Anyway, I was wondering what users thought he scored. I know hes no record but would still like to know. I have my guesses butfigured I would see how close I am to you guys and gals. Also, any clue if he would score as a non-typical? Im not sure the details of what makes it nontypical. Thank you all and I look forward to seeing what you got for me!" With the following pictures of the buck:
7-24-2008 The first thread of BH.com I believe. "Let's use this thread as a place to sign in so we know who all is around."
November 2008: "My name is Caleb Siman and i live in Chatham, Ohio. Many of you might know me from HNI (Siman08/OH, Cay4redneck). I was recently refered to this site by Will (OKbowhunter20). I look forward to spending some time here and getting into some good bowhunting conversation!" 9,311 posts ago. Damn i have no life.
12/11/08 about the rd-hc live trail cam site when it was shutting down. Think it ended up staying online with donations for a bit longer. "Don't give up on it yet, new message posted this evening. "
4/14/2011 First off i want to say I'm from Wisconsin southern boarder..So let me get this straight there won't be any gun hunting for October? If thats the case thats great news for me I love to bow hunt and by taking that gun season away would be a huge difference in hunting? So hopefully that is true can anyone fill me in more...Thanks
