10th Bowkill -- A Kansas Bruiser

Congrats buddy! Great deer and outcome. I know exactly how you feel, but you had a better ending. I hit one back on public land in Nebraska and never found him. I keep replaying it over and over and over. Congrats again!

Man, what a wonderful story, great outcome and a BEAST of a deer.

 

[Jim Boyd]

Many, many congratulations!

Awesome, all the way around.....

Thanks y'all. I was fortunate for sure.

Great story Ryan, thanks for sharing. Mass will fool you. A heavy horned buck is every bit as impressive as a long tined one. That is a old heavy warrior!

Congrats! Great experience, Kansas is a different world.
Hunting with an outfitter? Public land?

I'm fortunate enough to have extended family living in Kansas that farm. Now...if only Kansas would allow grandkids to get lifetime licenses of residents...I'd be set. Until then, I have to keep buying out of state tags.

Do you guys bring this meat back from Kansas or donate it? Nice deer.

Ended up paying for the processing and giving it to my family where we hunt. The processor wasn't going to be able to get the processing done in time before we left.

Bowtech D350. Easton St Axis arrows. Bipolar 125 gr broadheads. The arrow is something like 465 grains flying at about 280 fps. The broadhead has so far taken down 4 deer and two of them were midwest giants. This head was ground up in the off hip and was in pretty good shape after I pulled it out. The main blade was bent slightly and one of the fold out blades was bent, but it could be straightened and used again. It did everything it was advertised to do and I've been pleased with the head so far.
