Great bull and a story to match! Congrats, Jake! Looks like maybe you finally found THE bow! Those Simmons heads are wicked too. I'm going to use some Tiger Sharks for deer again this year. I like easy blood trails.    ;)

Yup...I've found "the bow"...for now:)

There are still a few I haven't tried:)

Thanks for the kind words everyone

Jake,

Congratulations on a fine bull!

Thanks for the recounting, it is appreciated. You done good...really good.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.
