Thanks you guys, I'm really happy with him. Hopefully I'll be able to take a buck with my bow in the next 3 days before the season closes.

Do you mark your bow with each kill?

Actually superfly, I do. I dip my finger in the blood and run a streak across the limb. It all started last year with my first bow kill, when I accidentally put my bow in some blood. From now on, each deer I kill with a bow, will get a little bit of its blood put on my bow.

vonotto: I'm shooting a '05 PSE Vengeance NRG Hybrid at 72#. It's shooting Easton XX75 2315's (520 gr) around 240 fps with a Thunderhead 100 on the front. I got a complete passthru on the BB. It entered between the 8th and 9th ribs and exited between the 5th and 6th, putting a bigslicein the 6th.

It has a Wisker Bisquit Deluxe rest and a Trophy Ridge Micro Mantis sight on it. I was shooting with a Tru Ball release.
