I learned to pick a spot Blacktail Down
« on: December 05, 2016, 08:33:00 PM »
After a 5 year hiatus, I decided to pick up my Horne Brushbow and hunt the late season for Blacktail. I actually missed this guy opening weekend and realized I wasn't picking a spot due to a case of buck fever.

When he came in this time,  I talked myself through the shot. I used a clicker to help my form and consistency, which appears to be working out quite well.

Horne brushbow 58" amo 42 @ 28
GT 3555 full length blems with 50 grain inserts and 125 grain 2 blade Magnus Broadhead.

I was able to capture the hunt on video.

That's a old broom handle I drilled a hole in and put a stud to screw my string tracker into.
