Hey team just felt like sharing a little success from NWPA. New to the forum, new to archery and new to saddle hunting.

Moved from from Arizona to Erie Pa a couple of years ago. Gave up my long range bino's and tripod combo, and rifle for a bow.

Two seasons hauling a stand around and there had to be a better way. The Eberhart's, New Tribe and Wildedge Inc. led the way. Thanks so much all the help.

Nice mature buck, 5 pts. not a huge rack but almost 225 #s. I'm no pro at aging but a buddy who butchered deer for 20 + years think it could be 5 or older.

Either way I'm thrilled to pull off felt almost impossible 2 seasons ago.

Congrats! I got my first one from my sit drag today. I'm glad I found this site, lots of great info here. I agree, that's an older deer in my eyes as well. Congrats again!

He had pretty good life. Always access to corn and soy. I think he was a bit of a dominant/bully buck on my wife's Uncles property. Many doe and only young subordinate spikes and forks. My wife and I have had encounters with him the last 3 seasons.
