Default 1st and 2nd deer w/ new Triumph

We went up to our property in Marion, MI on for the MZ opener on Friday. Took the new Triumph to see how she would do. Friday at about 8:15 am this doe came in and the TC did the job. Shot was about 65 yards or so, 200 gr. Shockwave ahead of110 gr. T7 3F. Double lung shot, she went about 70 yards with an awesome blood trail. Saturday: nephew shot a nice doe in the morning, then that evening I shot my second doe of the weekend and my dad also got a nice doe using a CVA Optima TH, 250 gr. Shockwave ahead of 100 grains APP 2F. Great weekend and we had a blast.

P.S. Snow was about 2-3 feet deep in areas with a good 14" on the flat.

No pic of the second doe or my dads, we had toquarter up2 of the deer so we had room to get everything in the truck to make the trip home. Pic was taken at home because I forgot to take the camera up north.
