    So I got my buddy his first bowkill of his new bowhunting life yesterday, and I was rewarded by the hunting gods with a big fat doe of my own tonight. My new Alphaburner sliced her up nicely, double-lung, with a little heart to boot. She only ran 50 yds, and was down in literally 5 seconds. (No pics, as it was dark and I didn't get a good one, but she's and old girl that went probably 200# or more, so I'll have a nice load for my freezer. :D

    Thanks BM!!! I have a dog that goes a legitimate 160#, and she was a LOT bigger than he is. She was an OLD girl, with a FAT belly. I've killed a few up here in NW Ohio that were really big. Lots of feed, not a lot of hunters, and many of those that do hunt are "horn hunters."

    Thanks Scott and G14.

    Scott, I'm pulling 62# on my Hoyt Alphaburner, and probably nearly as strong now as before the injury, but there are still some lingering effects, including a lot of burning in my hand, but all things considered, I'm doing well. I hear "Congrats" are in order for you as well as you stuck yet another nice buck.....

    That was me and I was joking cuz you had text me a pic earlier :D

    BUT, claiming a 200 pound doe is like claiming a 150" buck ... so yeah, without pics ..... ;)
