Default My first buck of 08'

I was able to take this guy at 35 yards on 11-10.My arrow was deflected off of a bush that he was standing behind causing the arrow to hit far back on him.I thought the arrow completely missed.After getting down from the stand racewayking and I took up the trail quickly.I found my arrow about 15 yards away and it was covered in dark red blood but that is where the blood trail stopped.We continued on about 60 yards where I heard him run to and there he was laying in some brush.This was my first time using a rage 2 blade head instead of my nitrons.I must say if it wasnt for the large cutting diameter of the rages who knows how far this deer would of ran.Im still not giving up my nitrons yet but those rages did do alot of damage.He was alot smaller on the ground than he appeared when I shot him but he will still be some good eatin though.I will score him after Im finished butchering him tonight.

Awesome job on the deer! Congrats!

Is your camo glowing blue or is that just the photo?

Nice buck, congrats.
I too ditched the Nitrons for Rages, just no comparison!
