I didn't get a picture of my first kill, which was a small buck but here is a pic of my second kill

Not first kill, but first bull killed with 65 lb recurve in 1984

 

[Foggy Mountain]

All of my first recurve kills were way before any the picture thing. Surely way before the camera phone thing. Cool thread though

Martin rebel 50@28”
Its now the “carp” bow.
I’m finding the traditional to be way more addictive than compound.

I love this picture, so cool!

Somewhere is a crinkle edged black n white photo from an old Kodak Brownie Camera, damned if I know where.

The bull is actually my son's kill who has Cerebral Palsey but it makes an excellent rack for my bow. He loves to sit and watch me shoot in the back yard so he loves this.

Cool thread. All of you have my respect!

Here was my first traditional kill, I think I 14 at the time. Funny thing was this picture Was still in one of the old albums
At my local archery shop. I have long since given up on traditional archery.

This is my first and only big game animal with traditional gear. Taken in 2019 with a bow my dad bought when he was 14. Probably could have found success sooner but I wanted to do it from the ground instead of from a tree stand

No good photos to be had of this bull before the packout. But he was my first big game animal with a longbow.

AZ diy. Good start to about a decade and a half of stickbow exclusivity and immersion that took me all over the US, Canada, and Africa.

This spring I got my first big game archery kill with the longbow at 4 yards. I don't have pics of the rabbit which was my very first archery kill.

First grouse on my recurve!!!

 

[NickCNC]

Not a monster, but he tastes good and my first ever kill. Got into hunting late.
