  1. i pick them up all the time, it really depends on how fresh and how hard they were hit. you can tell by checking the ribs and stomach area if its mush in there i leave it. call your pd and make sure first, most just say to take it and they will come to your house if they really need to.
  2. I sprayed the buck bomb on a low tree branch, right in front of my camera just in case something came by later I can at least see it! No deer action for me tonight, still figuring out this urban area that I will definatley hunt some days during gun with my bow. Never seen so many does since we moved to this area just driving and in the back yard. I counted 23 the other day in 2 miles and there's only a 200 yard strip of woods going up and down the creek in between the houses.
  3. I won't be carrying a gun, wel I'll be a gentleman and carry my wife's, I filled my antlerless plus 3 Dmp tags so I'll sit with her and help her get her first!
  4. Any deer with a arrow or bolt is a trophy, congrats!
  5. Just lit off a buck bomb, let's see how these things work on my last bow sit.
  6. As long as it will be a requirement to take archery safety class
  7. Moon dont matter when there's a hot doe out there
  8. Taking the afternoon off, cut up my does and I cannot believe the amount of fat on them, 1-2 inches thick in places along the back and rear.
  9. Silent here, in same tree as last morning. Have a hot doe tarsal gland hanging 20 yards away.
  10. looks like good blood to me. youll find it!
  11. anyone have any luck using a does tarsal glands as a scent? the buck that was standing over the dead doe i shot makes me think she was in heat plus she stunk. i am going to cut them off and bring them near my stand to hang up in the morning.
  12. I shot 2 does with these today, heart shot and a double lung both went less then 50 yards. No to replacement blades but i hear nap will send you some if you call. Im switching completely from rage now simply due to price. Ive seen 4 deer hit and 4 dead deer fast. i was using a vertical bow, just chiming in to help if possible!
  13. i agree that looks like a liver hit, id have waited 3-4 hours. should be cold enough tonight to get back out there in the morning and find him.
  14. i punched through a shoulder today with a heart shot, however it was the thinner part. i have hit the thick part and got about 2 inches of penetration, she lived.
  15. and now i can confirm the sling blade will stay in my quiver. Took 2 does with them this morning and they worked EXCELLEnt!
  16. It is on in 7s. Had a buck stand over the doe i shot for 30 minutes today. he then chased a couple more.

    Wow

    Unreal morning this morning. I had a big 8 point guarding my dead doe! ended up with 2 old girls to make the property owner happy!
  18. 8 does seen this morning, 8 point circling the first ones dead body for a half hour. Shot these right behind my house, the nap sling blade did a number on them. I shot the first doe at 15 yards, heart shot she didn't go far. I watched her go down and about 15 minutes later the 3 other deer with her went right toward her body. As that happened a big 8 point came barreling out of the thick creek side and started guarding her body. I watched him from about 80 yards and tried bleating/grunting but he would not leave. Shortly after the 3 deer that were with my first doe cam back to 15 yards, i shot the next biggest one and she ran off, died 25 yards from the first one with a double lung shot. The 8 point did not move still!. i had to get down to be at work at 11 so i climbed down slowly and moved toward him with my grunt call from down wind. Managed to get to 40 yards but wasn't comfortable with the shot due to branches so i let him go back into the brush. All of this happened on a small area i got access to right behind my house (11 acres). Now i can offer the landowner and neighbors some fresh venison and maybe get access to a couple other small pieces of property.
  19. Shot 2 does this morning, had a big 8 point circling ones dead body for 30 minutes!
  20. Doe and other 2 just came back on the same path, I could shoot another but I have to work at 11 and I'll let those doe fawns have a mother or mother figure!
  21. Just shot a doe, 3 doe and 2 fawns so far in my urban area behind my house
  22. Buddy hit 2 deer with these and has 2 kills with his vertical bow. needless to say they are sharper than rage, more simple, and cheap! i made the switch.
  23. Out hunting the back yard, had 2 bucks and a doe since i put the cameras out not 48 hours ago! Doe and 6 point midday and 8pt at night.
