7 point with 200gr Lehigh and Endeavor
Had only two days I could hunt before DC trip and so I could not get picky. I put a stand up where I got the doe with an arrow as it appeared a number of deer were using the bed ground next to it. This morning I was watching where the does go through the food plot to get to the bed ground and when I looked around here is this buck walking away from me at about 35 yds.
I took the long angle shot behind the short ribs to the opposite shoulder. [one of these days I will learn not to hold so close to the bone of that shoulder. I hit him with 140 gr Blackhorn and a 200gr Lehigh. The Lehigh literally blew up the liver went through the lungs and almost tore the heart in half. It got 26 inches of penetration in the deer and broke the shoulder bone and was sticking in the skin on the outside edge of the shoulder. I will put a few picture on. Sabot loader and Tom or any one else for that matter feel free to use the pics on the other form or Lehigh 's sight.

Nice report! Did you find any of the broken off pedals or could you see the path the pedals took?? Nice shot by the way.
I'm with you on taking a quartering away shot, better too far back then too far forward. I shot a doe quartering away last weekend at 10 yards. The big Snuffer just nicked the guts and passed through the liver, lungs and heart. DOA...nice and quick.

Shame on you Lee, trying to take credit for killing that deer. It's pretty obvious from those pictures that the nice lady stabbed it with a stick.
(Excellent report, by the way. Great pictures!)
