My buddy Joe from Beyond Backpacks gave me a call the other night to tell me how his opening day went in the Southern Zone of New York. Joe was out trying to shoot a doe and was only seeing young bucks. Then around 6:00 p.m. the big 10 pointer came out and was feeding on acorns at the base of his tree.

At 5 yards, Joe drew back on the buck and the arrow blew through both lunch and the buck's heart. About 60 yards later, the buck was on the ground. Congrats to Joe and his beautiful opening day 10 pointer!
