    So what’s everyone shooting ? I’ve got a Matthews Halon6. HHA sight, QAD rest Shooting gold tip kinetic hunter arrows with tac driver 2.75 vanes and muzzy trocar HB heads. Arrow weight around 510. I just bumped up arrow weight and changed heads last year because the season before I shoulder blasted a descent buck and didn’t get the penetration I needed to put him down. Turned into a long blood trail that just stopped. Frustrating!!im hoping that the new setup will help out if shot is off a touch. I’ve gotta say I’ve never seen carnage like the trocar HB put on my second die last year. Nasty!!! Blood everywhere. Dead within seconds and feet of where she stood when I shot her. I think I have pics. I’ll see if I can find them.

    Pic with just the blood is where she stood when I shot her. She basically took one step stood there for a few seconds I saw her well up and cough. When she did blood cane out her mouth and both entrance and exit holes. Fell over rolled down the hill and done. I never saw anything like it.

    I wish I would have waited another year to get a new bow. I love the way the halon shoots but it is very heavy. I believe the vertical is the next newest model. I would get murdered if I got another bow!! The one I had previously was a Matthews Q2 which was 17 years old when I finally replaced it.

    Be patient!! Try to stay calm!! It’s going to be hard to control yourself when you have that first shot opportunity arise. Experience goes a long way in being successful. Every time you get out you will learn something that will help you in future hunts. A little luck helps also !!

    Old Matthews Swithback XD off eBay, Easton FMJ, Muzzy Trocar hybrid BH, Spot Hog 3 pin.
    Funny how things happen: not one bow hunt last year. vs. 2020 my busiest/craziest year, and I have probably unlimited hunting access on AWSOME land full of deer.

    Good safe hunts Y’all.
