Ahh, success with the Wesley Special!
« on: November 03, 2008, 04:55:00 PM »
What luck! I finally picked the right trail to place my tree stand after seeing a nice rub line ! Didnt wait more than 1.5hour. The hit went high as shots from downward usually do but the little Zwickey past the spine and entered both lungs.There was no blood trail since he bled internally .From past experience though they dont go more than 75 yds.I found the shaft which he broke off and the remaining 6 1/2" with the broadhead was still in him. Sure enough after looking 5 minutes for him he was lying dead approx. 75yds from where I hit him.

Congratulations. What are the specs on your Wesley Special? I'm hunting with my first Hill bow this year, a 57@28, 66 inch special edition "Wild Boar". I love it. Is that a wire haired Dashound nipping at your deer?  :thumbsup:

Somebody was thinking ahead and planted those two pines the perfect distance apart to support a meat pole.

Nice deer, taken with great equipment.

Nice buck! I can see why he only went 75 yards with that attack dog attached to his ankle.  :D
