Title: My first with a Bow
Post by: OKTrap on November 07, 2007, 09:58:35 PM
Here's my first of the season taken with bow tonight. 10/29/07 at 6:25 PM. Field dressed 95 pounds. The arrow went clean through ... striking the heart and both lungs ... approximately a 45 yard shot.

Thank yall. I know it was a very lucky shot ... as the arrow passed through the whisker bisquit arrow rest ... the trailing edge of one of the vanes tore loose ... causing the arrow to "flutter" loudly and spiral in the flight path. I didn't think that I even came close to hitting him until I went looking for the arrow ... and there he was about 20 yards away from where he was standing ...
