Below are Images of Bow-Harvested Animals from the 2009-2010 Bowhunting Season
(Page 24)


Pictured above is Will Hathorn of Brookhaven , MS with his mature 8 point whitetail that he took on a morning bowhunt December 10, 2009 while bowhunting in northeast Louisana. Will was hunting a scrapline when his 8 pointer presented an 8 yard shot. Will made a high lung shot and his fine buck only traveled ~80 yards before going down for good. Will's 8 pointer sports a 19 2/8 inch inside spread and gross scores 125 3/8 Pope and Young inches. Will was using a Mathews DXT bow, carbon shafts with a 2-blade Rage broadhead and a 5 pin G5 Optix sight. Congratulations Will and thanks for sharing your good fortune with our bowhunting community.
