Thanks, guys! I'm still trying to figure out how I made that shot. I am guessing that luck played a large part in it but since I had had nothing but bad luck with deer for most of the season I was due a little on the good side.

I used a 58" takedown ThunderStick Mag, 550 grain homemade ash arrows tipped with 200 grain Ace SuperExpress broadheads (total weight: 750).

That ThunderStick is my go-to bow. Me and it just seem to work together perfectly!

Darren

PS. When you're left-handed, you get to shoot from the children's stand.

It's a nice feeling when you find a bow that just feels right.  Congratulations on your doe!

Yeah, Kenny, I have to agree with Keith. I've heard some of your stories about deer you've let walk by.

I sure hope to get back to your place again sometime soon!

Nice shooting Darren.

I'm starring to think that kenny is a vegan in disguise.

I had too many years waiting for Mr big rack and passing on does and small ones only to regret later in the year. For seven bucks I can let fly and enjoy tasty backstrap. Now I male sure my first deer of the jitters are well gone. I don't practice year round to let em walk. Again nice shooting Darren. And as for kenny, what did you sharpen them broadheads for man? Get to shootin!
