Here are some pictures of the buck I shot this morning. I took him from a treestand. Actually didn't get up till 0530 this morning, so by the time I showered, had coffee, and got out the door is was 0600. The traffic was horrible (DC I95 N Morning rush hour) so I got into my stand about 0650. The first little buck came in at about 0700. I did some yearling grunts and bleats but he wasn't having much to do with me. 5 minutes later, the buck I shot came in to check stuff out. He was 18 yards from the base of my tree. They are running pretty hard up in this area right now. It was a great morning to shoot a deer. I love the Marine Corps Birthday! Best day of the year and this made it that much better.
Standing at the tree, facing the direction I shot the deer. The bigger tree was about where he was. 18 yards from my tree
The arrow after blasting through his rib cage
If you look in the center of the picture, you will see he is down. Went about 30 yards from where he was shot, maybe less
This picture doesn't show it, but it looks like he was murdered with an ax. There was so much blood
Entrance wound (2 blade 100gr Rage)
Another of the entrance wound! Pretty awesome cutting action
Exit wound
Another of the exit.
My hunting Partner and I
I have NEVER been anykind of fan of expandable broadheads in the past, but due to some crappy Muzzy's I bought and some kinda iffy performance (slight bloodtrails), I decided to try the 2 blade rage. I gotta tell ya, for deer, they work GREAT. They cut large holes, with a cut on contact point, kinda like an old Fred Bear Razorhead or Zwickey and seem to work as advertised. All of my hunting partners use them and I was the last hold out. I am sold on them. Anyhow, Figured you all would want to see the pictures. I am shooting a Bear ATTACK 70lbs (323 chronoed), Bass Pro Carbon Fury 65-80 shafts, Rage 2 blade 100gr, Whisker Biscuit Rest and Tru Fire Release.
Sorry about not having any rifle hunt pictures, but it doesn't start till Saturday in these parts. Scotty
