Hunted all year last year with no success (one miss and several missed opportunities) and it all happened for me this afternoon. She came in with a few others and halted about 10 yards from me. Hit her through one lung and the heart. She ran about 100 yards and expired..broke my arrow; I'll have to find he other half tomorrow. I just got done cleaning her up and look forward to my sit in the AM.
The bow is a Jeffery's that my dad got built for elk back in '86.
First wild boar harvest, traditional of course. Shot this past week on Cumberland Island. Northern Mist Classic, 160 grain Magnus classic. 29 yard shot, 60 yard recovery. What a rush!
10-16-14. Carroll County doe. PSE Impala Takedown 55#, Gold Tip Traditional 35/55's, 145 grain Satellite 4C broadheads. Double lung shot, deer was down 40 yards from the stand. My second trad deer ever.
I climbed in a pine tree on an old road bed with several white oaks around. It was pretty quiet until about 6:40, I heard something coming through the woods. It was a spike coming down the road towards me. He headed in the woods behind me then I saw two more headed towards me. The first one stopped to tear up some limbs hanging over the road. Then he headed straight towards me.....he stopped about 10-15 yards from my tree. He didn't give me the best angle, I picked my spot and let it fly. My wood arrow hit a little back of where I wanted. I climbed down and found my arrow covered in blood. I went back to camp and got some help. We ended up finding him about 40 yards straight in front of where I shot him. He had looped around. The Ace broad head hit him in the liver but exited through the stomach. He a basket 6 pointer, but a trophy for my first trad kill
