congrats , looks like a great shot. Sweet don’t forget to post it to the score thread. 50 pts is 50 pts
Hey Mud, it was the most perfect of shots, probably the best shot I've ever had. Worst of all, I didn't take a picture with my bow!!! I know, I'm the biggest dumba$$ on the team, I apologize! It shouldn't be very hard to kill another doe though. On a good note, this is the first deer I've shot since I changed my arrow set-up. I had always shot Gold Tip 5575's and was driving tacks however I would get very few if any complete pass-throughs. This began to bother me, I was spending way too much time looking for deer I knew were dead. 2 maybe 3 years ago I changed to the Gold Tip Kinetic Kaos 300's which were a much stiffer arrow than what I had been shooting, I also upped the weight on my broadhead from 100 to 125. My feet are at 11' in the tree I'm in due to all of the small trees around, I tried 15' but couldn't see more than 15 yards in any direction. I shot this deer at about 20 yards ish and had to "pull" the arrow out of the ground. I don't know if a shoulder blade would stop this set-up but I'm not going to shoot one there just to see. I was at roughly 375 grains on my previous set-up, I'm btw 515.3 and 516.4 with this set-up and love it. Crazy how much quieter my bow is with the heavier set-up. The doe was on eggshells but didn't even flinch when the arrow hit her and expired within 40 yards.
@foodplot19 , no worries on the score bro , it’s gonna take a miracle for somebody to beat team 5 , they have all scored 2 deer except 2 of them. You kill what you want and when you want. Sounds like a great set up for you. Now put an arrow thru a buck. Good luck
Big snow storm coming Sunday. Heading out tomorrow evening. Surely they will be moving before this storm
I’ve been out a few times no luck. Monday starts the indoor league I run and I’m changing back to field pts. My season is done. Thanks guys and Lady ( Junior). It’s been great to have been teammates with you all. For those still hunting, I gonna still follow along
Hey guys ! Just checking in. I actually went back up to Missouri last week and tried to hunt a few days but the rain and the fog ( I did say fog right ??) kicked my butt all week. Saw a few deer but none were in bow range. I’m back in Alabama now and the rut is just starting to kick in here. I have several target does on camera here. I know for sure I can get one for us. Just need to get out in the woods and get it done. We sure do need some points. We have not added much lately. I know we may not have a chance to catch up but we still can make a good showing if the ones is us that are still hunting can get a few deer on the ground. Good luck to all of you and hope to post again soon.
