Title: 2024 Ohio Buck with a big Snuffer
Post by: buckeyebowhunter on November 14, 2024, 02:03:03 PM
I was fortunate enough to take this nice buck in the afternoon on Veteran's day out of one of the best rut funnels I know of. From the time I saw him to the time he was dead was probably less than 30 seconds. Crazy how fast it can happen. The shot was about 12 yards broadside and I sent a big snuffer through both his lungs. I am always impressed by what these heads can do to a deer.  The bow was a recurve that I built, 50lbs @ 28 inches. The best part about it was sharing the recovery with my dad. Just thought I would share, good luck to everyone the rest of the fall.

Thanks all!
Bronz here is a photo of the bow, although I did add an elevated rest to it, I felt like it gave me some better clearance.

Thank you, the bow is 62" 50#@28". Arrow was a true flite 2018 that I bought at an antique store in Michigan while on vacation with my family haha. I refletched it with 4, 5.5" shield cuts in a 60×120 orientation and tipped it with a big 200gr snuffer. Total arrow weight around 630.

Middle of the body with a big snuffer?  You must not have listened to the experts on this site on the correct shot placement.  Great buck, great shot, congratulations!

Great buck and gorgeous bow.  You have some real talent.  What I liked best was your statement that the best part was sharing the recovery with your dad.  As an aging dad, I can tell you that it was special to him too. :thumbsup:
