Fantail Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I haven't visited an old favorite wma in about 2 years, you can get wrapped up in leases & private land. Something convinced me to hit it with the Bow & climber Friday, in the wind & rain. Even knowing the area at one point I found myself dragging this hoover 50 yards in the wrong direction. Perhaps the weather & getting soaked turned me around a bit, ironic how once I finally got to the truck the rain stops. The shot was 25 yards & a pass through, still lost the blood trail after maybe 40 yards, rained out. From there I had a good idea he direction he went, kept an eye out for any sign, anything like fresh stumbled tracks etc. The track was about an hour, near the end the wind & rain was erasing sign so I criss-crossed. Man was I getting worried but I stuck to it. He went about 80 yards. PSE @5o# - radial X weave - Magnus Stinger head. Slammin` Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantail Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 Thank you all for the kind comments I should note that I went out on that hunt without my usuall favorite heads, Phantom MX. I hit three different places looking for them, no dice. At Gander shadowed by all the other heads in their fancy packaging was a row of Magnus Stingers. Very similar cut on contact to the Muzzy and priced right. Gave them a shot - Magnus has a new customer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
