I love to see Trad kills and it looks like we have a couple threads going with pics but let's get a consolidated thread going for this year. Let's see this year's Trad bow kills ladies and gents. I'll start. Let us know if it's your first!

You can always see appreciation and respect for the animal in a persons face who makes a traditional harvest. Maybe it’s just me but I always sense it more from the Trad guys. Much respect from a wanna be traditional guy who’s currently a compound guy.
 
Do groundhogs count?
I shot 6 this summer.

Thanks @Allegheny Tom , in answer to your question, Yes, i have already found traditional archery to be very rewarding. I can only imaging it increasing with a successful harvest with it. And yes groundhogs count. Everything counts in Traditional in my opinion. Smaller targets are harder to hit!

Whose bow is leaning against the tree in the background of your Dad's hero pic?
If nobody claims it - it is mine...I, um, lost, um a bow there, um...

Sorry, but I got photo evidence it's mine. It's the same bow in the two pics of me. :)

Killed him on a scrape line near bedding last night. Much thanks to @JSEXTON23 for bringing his dog. Double lung, but a touch high. The exit is at the end of the stick in the top picture, entrance is in the bottom photo. Found no blood, and the dog found him in 10 minutes. I love me some trad hunting. 665 grain taw, tuffhead meathead 265, 100 grain insert. 47 pounds at my 29" dl, black hunter.
