I shot this buck Saturday morning at 6:45 just 6 yds from my stand, but I was 25’ up in my climber so it was basically straight down shot. I thought I had Made a good shot but I caught His shoulder and missed all vitals as it never exited. I waited 3 hours and tracked his blood trail for 360 yds and then it just stopped. This a pic from the morning I shot him and then another 5 days after. You can see I hit Forward just a few inches to far. Just glad to know he survived and hope to get another shot at him. I had Drawn back on him the previous two days but decided to wait for a bigger buck I have Been after. I decided If he gave me a third shot then it was his time to die, but he was on the lucky side this time.

Think maybe the arrow bounced off the feeder leg first? grin

Hopefully he heals from that but I'm doubtful. It sucks but it happens.

He was fighting with another buck at the feeding station, so I am pretty sure he will fully recover. My arrow only penetrated his shoulder about 4”.

This is why I passed on him twice already. He will not get anymore free passes from me this season unless he is traveling with my primary target. Been after this buck for three years now.

You just never know. I shot my 8 point last year in the same place as you did and he didn't go 50 yards.

That second buck is definitely worth waiting for.

Good luck.

Luckily alabama has that limit of 3.

Although they need to do something so people stop "losing" their game record and printing another.

you have the worst luck with a bow, you can't ever kill a deer with it, need to stick with the rifle laugh

Somebody is pranking you....bucks like that are a myth, they don't really exist in the wild, based on my many many years of hunting crappy property were my fellow members joyride the property on 4 wheelers and UTV's throughout the middle of the day, every day. rolleyes
