Default RE: Eight Point Buck Down!

Thanks everyone for the comments! The heart shot is just more forlooking cool then anything. I have shot plenty of deer, and other then my ML buck this is the first bow shot that I have hit the heart. I know the general area of the heart, but I always seem to just miss it, this time I got lucky and thought it was cool! Was happy this time thoughasI feel I am getting much better at being relaxed when shooting a buck. I have always found all my deer, but alot of times I am so pumped it's over and I don't even know what happened. Felt pretty good remembering to take a breath and aim high since he was as close tome as he was, maybe fiveyards tops. I hit about four inches to the right of the spine, right on the curve of his back on the back part of the rightlung. The arrow came outin his left arm pit. He did not run far andwhen he stopped the one time and started running he did the crooked run thing and I knew he was a done deal. I will get the footage John some time soon. But remember last time I was focused way out, well this time I am focused in so far you mainly only see the vitals of the deer when I shoot. The tree was to thick for me to fallow deer so the video is short, but you can see the rack pretty good as he walks under tree. Thanks all again!
