Possible upper brisket, forward of shoulder. Would explain only a few drops of blood. Solid brisket hit should have some fat on the shaft.
-
That hair looks long. I'm thinking forward of the shoulder/brisket.

I was covered up in deer. Seen three 8pts, and a couple smaller bucks, and probably 15+ does and fawns. Had a nice 8 12yrds to my right, but had 4 does underneath me with one sniffing the ladder, and no way was I going to spin all the way around with all those eyes so close. The 8's were definitely pestering the does a little bit.

Ok. Arrow on rest correct. ✓ Vanes in proper position ✓ Jacket zipped up, nothing in the way to catch the string ✓ binos not hanging around neck✓ waiting for redemption ✓

I've only tried Onx. Works well for what I need.
-
Congratulations. Like the drop tine.

I was definitely locked in too my shooting stance. Seen him coming for 80 yards. Had plenty of time to stand and get set. I guess i messed up somehow. Weather it was a deflection or whatever.

Winchester 243 how good or bad for deer and range
mowin replied to phantom's topic in Rifle and Gun Hunting
It's on the lighter side, but lots of deer have been killed with a .243. Wouldn't hesitate taking a 200+ yard shot with the right bullet. -
Lol, can't say it's not possible.
-
If the knock did spin, that's a definite possibility.
-
I'd ask them if you can retrieve it. But if it only a few yrs in, I'd just go grab it.
-
Drop away rest. Difficult to not have it seated correctly.
-
I actually have some in there. Able to twist the shaft when knocked, but it's difficult with just my fingers. Just shot with all my gear on. First was 2“ left, next 4 we're dead nuts. All will the same broadhead. So, either I fudged up and forgot everything about follow through over the 40+ yrs of bowhunting, or string caught something. Either is possible I guess.
-
Surprised the hell out of me. Possible string caught my binoculars, but I think I would have felt that. The lighted knock isn't super tight and easy to twist when arrow is knocked, so also possible my vanes hit the cable. And there wasn't a twig between him and I. heading out to shoot in a few. I'll put my harness and jacket on and see if I figured it out.

My pse stinger x is about 7 yrs old and kills fine. And my nephew is still using the bow you gave him. If you choose to believe otherwise, that's on you.
-
Agreed. Been there myself. I actually laughed when he walked over and sniffed the knock. I'll hopefully get another crack at him. Things are really heating up fast. Hopefully I can figure out what happened this morning. Took a couple shots Friday afternoon with no issues, and there was nothing between him and I except air.

What a fantastic hunt this afternoon. Until I missed... Had 8 doe and fawn coming walking by at 15y. Finally a nice 8pt followed. Have no clue what happened, but my arrow hit 5' to his left. He then proceeded to walk over and snif my green lighted knock. Got a second arrow knocked, and was about half draw when he decided to vacate the area.
-
Just had two doe and a fawn walk by at 15y. Spike was following, but wind swirled and he turned around. Not really spooked, just knew something wasn't right. Got 6 feeding behind me now.
-
Had a spike hounding a doe on the walk in probably 60 yrs from my stand. Ran her off into the woods. There back out in the field.
-
Ya, those salty bastards...
-
Thankfully no. Got a pic of a doe about a hr later.
-
I picked the wrong stand...
-
I've got some that are probably 5-6 yrs old and have held up well. I too would rather have a metal seat with a cushion.

Wow... Still trying to explain the way you vote? -

This was done on purpose so in a court of law the government can convict you easily because they can afford a better lawyer.
