Shocked a 135gr head went thru a shoulder blade.
No shock to me at all. My dad and his hunting buddy's did It for many years shooting 135 grain Satellite II BH's. A few of there elk they caught the shoulder blade and went right through It and out the other side. There setups were (2216's 135 grain Satellite II BH's shot from Big Horn Take Down Recurve's all pulling 60lbs and 65lbs).
I'm glad you guys had some success there Chad!! Elk hunting Is a work out that's for sure. You were fortunate you had a horse for packing In and out, It could of been worse for ya. The last time I went elk hunting I had 95lbs on my back and we packed In 7 miles. I was dead to the world when we finally hit camp. It took till the last few days of a 10 day hunt before my legs finally started to cooperate with me without me having to stop and rest. Horses would be nice though. I'd do It with horses If I had some. Good to see you back in one piece!! Glad you had fun and learned a thing or 2, that's what It's all about!
Ok, thats fine. But it still begs the question. Why are you shooting such a high weight bow?
Why am I? If your asking why I am the reason Is I like knocking something on It's ass when I hit It.
