RE: Northern Illinois Buck
Rico.... The scorpion did it' s job becasue I actually made a pretty good shot, got mid right lung, top of heart, low left lung on exit. Wasn' t real impressed with the blood trail though. Last year I used Rocket Sidewinders and had a blood trail a blind man could have followed, but he piled up in 60 yds so I guess I shouldn' t complain. I did screw the Sidewinders back on my arrows though, because there a couple more larger than him on the farm.
On a side note, took him to the taxidermist last night who is an official scorer for P&Y and he said he would go 135-140 gross, he said he would still make the book even with the deductions for the extra tine on the left side, I guess me & my buddys estimate of 127 was a little low.
