Glad you found him PCP. Did you get him with that "noisy" DXT?

Congrats Steve, glad you found him.

Let see him when you get time.


Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.

It only took me 33 years to get a decent buck with a bow; at this rate I'll be 90 years old when I get the next one. smile

I couldn't stand it anymore, so we left about noon to look for him. I found a few drops of blood where I shot him, and it soon turned into a heavy trail. Went about 100 yards and there he was; I think he died soon after I shot him.



I hit him a little further forward than I thought. It entered high behind the left shoulder and exited between his legs. Got one lung, just as we figured. The rest of the arrow was still in him.

He had a better rack than I realized. An 8 pt, he had a 21" inside spread, one 23" beam and one was 21.25. I looked him over carefully when we found him, hoping he would make 130, but I decided he wouldn't quite make it. He didn't, but 127.75 is a good deer for our area.



Yes Shaw, it was that noisy Matthews that got him. smile
I think your tune-up job really helped it.

Jughead, there were no guts on the arrow, so I thought 3 hours ought to be long enough. I suspect he was dead in 5 minutes, but its better to give them time. Thanks to everyone for the help.



All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

Preacher, that is ONE FINE DEER!!! I'd be thrilled to take a buck like that with a bow (or a gun for that matter).

Congrats!
