Default I got an Acorn today....

Well, my buddy and I set up in a public place that never seems to get hunted. We found a ton of sign last week and decided to give it a whirl.Several does passed through my window and I waited for the last one. I had about a two foot window to shoot through, it was perfect. I let it go and about 10 feet from the deer the arrow deflected over her back. I had no idea what was going on, but after further examination I found an acorn hanging about 3in. down into my shooting window that I couldn't see due to the backdrop. The top right had a piece busted out and there were to slices from my slick trick.[:@] Oh well, I guess we live and learn.

An acorn growing 10ft from the deer? Seems kind of low for any acorns I've ever seen.

Well what happened to you is better then say deflecting the arrow and hitting her in the guts or something.
