First blood of the season!
« on: September 07, 2009, 07:52:00 PM »
And with deer season right around the corner, I'm just excited as all heck.

Dressed out at just under 4oz, and put up a courageous fight.  Measurements have been sent to P&Y, we might just make the books on this fella.

Just want to thank my guide and good friend Frassettor for being my eyes and ears as I bore down on the beast.

Bow was 67# RD Custom, I think I may have been underpowered on the shot...

I tell you what, I took no less than 20 shots on those little buggers yesterday and didn't hit a single one. Ranges were 5-20 yards, and I must've missed each one by an average of an inch or less.

... I considered it a raging success that I missed by so little, so many times.

Alas, it would have been nice to draw first blood with the pronghorn!

Good shooting.    :thumbsup:  I blew my chance Sunday.   :(   Missed one over the back about 1" at 15 yd.  I would blame the miss on it ducking the arrow, but I don't know they are 1" off the ground to start.  :D
