Hey all,

I was able to connect on a decent 8-point Thursday afternoon. I went down to my families property in southern Illinois for one day of bow hunting and then the gun season. I didn't see too much Thursday morning but I wasn't in my stand for more than 15min in the afternoon when this fella came strolling by. There was absolutely no wind and the thermals had yet to start falling, I was pretty sure if he didn't see me I would have a chance to draw once he passed.

He was moving from my right to left at about 15 yards away, as soon as he got to my left I drew and sent one through the boiler room. It was a double lung and the Rage 2 blades just tore him up! He jumped and kicked at the hit, ran about 30 yards then started to walk another 10 and fell over at about 40 yards away!

He's not too thick but he has good length and a nice spread. I'm sure he'll go over 100in but not too much more. I'll put a tape to him today and get him posted.....I'm stoked!

Edit: I copied this to the Bowhunting Forum
