A little back round story on this hunt. I was hunting with a home made aluminum riser with a set of 55 pound Samick limbs. I was shooting Easton 1916's cut to 28.5 with a 200 grain woodsman broad head.

Congratulations
For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.

Great job! Where did you shoot it? What did you aim for?

At least you found yours.  :(
