Hello everyone,
Jen, I just read a post of yours from last year about hitting a deers antlers. Wow does this bring back memories
not good ones either. Two years ago I was hunting when 3 buck walking in a row snuck up behind me. I heard them coming and the deer stand is next to a big tree so I stood up took a quick peek and saw 3 bucks. I'd say a 12, 10, and 8. The biggest was in front. The deer was 5-7 yards away and I drew back on him. All I could see were antlers (big antlers). I think somthing spooked them and the deer jumped back a few yards. I saw the buck and let the arrow go....... I heard a sound......then I noticed somthing in the air. It was half of my arrow the fletched part. It landed 5 yards in the opposite dirrection I was shooting. There was no limbs in the way of my shot. I climbed down and found half the arrow and the broad head directly below where the deer was standing. So I was down an arrow, broad head, and a big trophey buck. I was so mad[:@][:@]. After this I went to check in how my cousin was doing and he had a nice size doe down. I was so frustrated that I almost didn't congratulate him on the kill.
I just put a couple more sight pins on the bow and it is read to go, I'm going to shoot a couple broad heads at 20 and 30 yards and then I might head out tomorrow. It'll be 55 degrees so they might be moving. I shot the bow 50 more times today so I think its broke-in. I'll keep everyone in touch,
KK
I'm going to post a pitcher of me with a deer this week, Wihunter did this and I think its pretty good idea.
