Good Job Wally. DB
Hey Tim. All good here in new bern. Plenty of water in the woods and acorns. Right up the road they are dealing with major flooding to rival that of Floyd in 1999. expecting 5' of water in Neuse Sport shop in Kinston by Saturday afternoon.

did the arrow pass through?  

I have read of two posts recently that were with "light" bow and the other one had a LESS THAN 400 grain arrow zip right through a deer.  tough to argue with results.

Thanks for the kind words everyone….

Daniel - I had an exit wound but the arrow stayed in the deer - but not for long as it snapped off as soon as he took a few jumps….Pretty much the same as what I've experienced with my 50 - 55 lb. bows on similar hits over the years(around 40 deer with trad)...

Arrow weight is a little less than 500 grains….
