On a side note, anyone ever use dead down wind bar soap? Usually just go with scent killer , but this stuff is making me break out in hives bad!
I am heading down to the in laws this weekend so I should be able to hunt Saturday and sunday morning. I will try to keep you guys updated.
Well it's 3 AM and I'm on the road to have a date with A stand and maybe A buck I call splits Mathews Chill X NAP Carbon apache HHA optimizer Pine ridge stab CX Maxima Hunters
Well I got in my stand at about 1230 and this has been a brutal first long sit Hopefully it pays off in the next 2 hours Mathews Chill X NAP Carbon apache HHA optimizer Pine ridge stab CX Maxima Hunters
I guess this isn't my year. I shot a doe on Saturday morning and hit her high. I waited an hour to start looking and found some blood then it would disappear and then I would walk 200 yards and find it again. Well long story short I looked from 9 to 3 yesterday and I got up this morning and looked for 8 to 10 and then I ran out of blood. I feel sick to my stomach I am pretty sure she will survive. That was the first one I got on film with the epic camera.
Sounds like you just shot in no man's land. She'll be fine after a month of healing. Probably see her being chased by a big boy in November. Good luck.
Sounds right to me the "dead zone" below the spine and above the lungs. Was there fat on the arrow? Usually if u hit there it's like giving them a body piercing. Keep your head up Mathews Chill X NAP Carbon apache HHA optimizer Pine ridge stab CX Maxima Hunters
The arrow had good blood on it all the way to the nock and one of the vanes fell off. I am thinking about switching to the killzones. Do they fly quieter than the Rage. I am shooting muzzys now and have shot rage in the past.
The huge benefit to a killzone is the spring retaining clip. Try fly great and have been really good for me. I do also use a 50 grain brass insert in my arrows so I get a greater FOC If u watch the Dow video from Wisconsin and pause it at the shot u can see my arrow cartwheel after passing thru her. I am a mech blade guy and always will be. How many pounds are u shooting and what draw do u have Mathews Chill X NAP Carbon apache HHA optimizer Pine ridge stab CX Maxima Hunters
I am shooting 70 pounds and 28 or 29 inches. I think I am going to order some Killzones. I like the cut on contact broad heads but I don't think they leave a good blood trail.
We need a few more does on our board fellas We can't forget we can get a good jump with 550 points in does unless anyone else is in a buck only area Mathews Chill X NAP Carbon apache HHA optimizer Pine ridge stab CX Maxima Hunters
I'm going out after a buck that disappeared and just showed up on the tinks scrape. He's been in there in daylight and with this rain ending I hope he shows up tonight. No doe kills for me just yet. I call him g3
Go get him buddy A second buck can be used for the 50 points Mathews Chill X NAP Carbon apache HHA optimizer Pine ridge stab CX Maxima Hunters
Good lord Tyler, between rockstar n this dude , I am jealous as all hell of your Huntin ground! Good luck regardless that it's only 50 pts....
Well guys looks like I'm going to try to get out all day Friday and Saturday again this week. The good news is there's been a lot of buck activity on our section of the farm. The bad news is they're calling for a west northwest wind or a straight northwest wind which is not good for most of the area that I'm hunting. But if I'm able to connect on a buck he will be at least 125 inches or better for our team. Mathews Chill X NAP Carbon apache HHA optimizer Pine ridge stab CX Maxima Hunters
Ha at least 4 inches of water in my front yard Mathews Chill X NAP Carbon apache HHA optimizer Pine ridge stab CX Maxima Hunters
