2 New Knife Handles!
« on: November 16, 2009, 07:18:40 pm »


Took this young fellar yesterday morning. I had made a scent trail going into my stand location, and this guy walked right to me with his nose to the ground.... The shot was about 10 yards but I had to climb to about 25 ft to get to where I had some decent shot opportunities without foresting state property:) The shot was pretty steep and I was pretty sure I only got one lung. Fifteen minutes later it started to rain, so I took up the trail quicker than I would have liked. He ran about 30 yards before I found any blood, and made it about another 70 more before he expired. The broadhead didn't exit(think I short drawed a bit), but I punctured the lung and knicked the heart. There was enough sign to stay with him before the rain got heavy.

I think that is the 5th deer I have taken with "Pappy's Osage", self-nocked ash shaft, and zwickey head.

Best part, I took him cleanly and honorably before the "Orange Army" descended on the woods this morning..... ;)

Congrat's Chad! Your tearing em up. That's a big bodied spike.
When you come upon a track or trail you do not know, follow it to the point of knowing.

Way to go Chad!!
As a species we're fundamentally insane. Put more than two of us in a room, we pick sides and start dreaming up ways to kill one another.Why do you think we invented politics and religion.
