Great job

Justin,

That is a great buck!  Looks like another TallTines harvest.  I see you are not using a bow quiver...makes me have to ask the question; what arrow/broadhead are you using?

[KSshrewman]

Outstanding Iowa buck....but even more impressive was the total experience.  What a memory.

Steve,

I used CE heritage shaft with 100 grain insert and 125 muzzy phantom broad heads. The bow pulls 52lbs and I got a complete pass through. I was very excited about that. Bare shafts fly as good as feathered shafts.  

I used Cedars last year and that is  my goal in the near future. I have some 60-65 that are a bit to weak, and when I get the funds I would like to build some new 70-75 cedar shafts. Unfortunately they break a lot more because I shoot them into limestone bluffs, trees, etc. At least they smell good when they break.

Nice buck! Love those TallTines! How have you found the Muzzy Broadheads so far? I am using the 220 grain version for the first time this year with my talltines.

[Steve O]

Excellent, thanks.  Someday I'd like to shoot wood arrows too, but I have a ton of faith in the man made shafts.

Looks like this buck might be a touch larger than your avatar buck.  That took some doing!

Great story, great deer!

Michael,

I was really happy with the phantoms. This was my first experience with them. The part I liked best was how sharp they were, and the four blades, which I think in the case proved to be very lethal. I think I switch to a different broad head every year though. Last year I used bear razorcaps which I also like. I did explode one phantom on a rock when I missed a grouse this sept, but I think that was to be expected.

Shooting carbons in the future, I think I would me most inclined to use the phantoms again.
