Got one down this weekend/with pics
Well went out this weekend and The first deer I saw after a 5 hour sit was a great looking 10 point he came in at 23 yards with a little 3 point. Man he was a duke. I would guess about a 135 to 140 range. After I calmed myself down I let one fly, Half way there I hear a noise and my arrow takes a left turn and hits this buck right in the butt.[:@] I hit a limb. I watched him run off and could see were my arrow fell out. Only about 3 inch's of my arrow went in. Let it go all night went back and only found blood for about 30 yards and then nothing. I was very bummed to say the least. So I think I just pissed him off and gave him a limp[8D] The very next night I went out and sat for four hours and saw one doe and was getting very up tight. Then he just popped out of a tree line at 55 yards, He made a scrap and walked 10 yards and made another scrap.
I grunted at him and he looked up then went on to make a 3rd scrap. By now
he is walking out of my sight and heading to another runway that I dont have a lane for. So I cant see him anymore but can here him so I grab my can call and let one go the I let a 2nd one go and I hear nothing. So I sit back down to collect myself and think to myself how cool that was. Then he just comes
out of no were from around the corner I last saw him at. Walks right down the food plot line and stops right under my tree,lifts his head and smells then just stays there for 4 minutes.(But it felt like 40) Then he just walks right to my shooting lane and stands 13 yards,let it fly and BOOM perfect double lung.
The rage 2 blade worked like a charm,he was not even to the other end off the food plot and started to trip up and the he went into the tree's and I heard him crash. Went back to the camper and had dinner went back out and found him 60 yards from were i shot him. Was with out a doubt one of my best
weekends in the woods ever. Have not been able to score him yet but should have a score this weekend. He is my best buck with my bow. The hole is the exit from the rage two blade,blood trail was so easy to follow. Was perfect.

RE: Got one down this weekend
thanks guys, cant wait to get back out and try for another one.
I forgot to add that myself and my buddy (who is a little smaller then I am lol) took every thing we had to
drag this thing up the ridge he went down, we both guessed him to be at least 250lbs before he was dressed.
