First Love....through the years
Share
My first bow kill was a spike bull in 1989....my next, a Pope & Young blacktail buck in 1990. Since that time I have been obsessed with bowhunting trophy blacktail. So much so, I wrote a book by the same title, "Bowhunting Trophy Blacktail" sharing what I have learned about the species over the years.
Dreaming of big blacktail is what motivated in the early years of my bowhunting career. The blacktail deer was truthfully my first love. I don't remember the first girl I kissed, but I do remember arrowing that first big 3x3 out on "Dead End" like it was yesterday. Hit him high and dropped him in his tracks.
In the mid to late 90's I used a handful of Oregon deer tags on big Eagle Cap mule deer, but I've come home so to speak. Focusing on blacktail again here lately and as predicted, loving every second of it. Lots of memories here in this post. This isn't all the blacktail I've arrowed, but this is the best of the lot. Even got lucky on a Boone & Crockett awards book qualifying buck in 2002 I think it was.
Keep hunting hard guys, Cam

I think technological know-how just makes it worse. Now there’s a channel to hardly ever care, now there wouldn’t be a likelihood for them to discover.

to seek out troubles to enhance my internet site!I suppose its okay to generate usage of several of your respective concepts!!
Great to see you back doing your thing on outdoor channel. The Eastman’s show you did on blacktails was a nice change of pace from the typical outdoor show. Interested to see what the future holds for the great Cameron Hanes. Expecting great things my friend.
Hey Cam,
I am trying to find a copy of your book “bowhunting trophy blacktails”. Do you have any? or can you point me in the right direction?
Thanks ,Andy
Hey Cam I love the relection through the years. I can’t seem to get enough of your “Singularity of Purpose” vid! Any time I need a little kick-start. Thanks for all you do!
