I shot my 2nd doe of the year yesterday afternoon. I decided to hunt a tripod on a road we had been corning out. I was not in the stand 10 minutes when a nice doe came ambling down the road from my left to right. She worked her way past me, and got “right” at about 14-15yds. I hit anchor, released the arrow, and it all happened so fast, I had no clue where the arrow had hit her. I saw a large gush of blood as she spun and ran off, so I figured it must have been pretty good.
I got out of the stand, and went to get my tracking dog in training Zeke. We got back to the stand, and I got him all ready in his tracking harness. I told him to “find the deer” and put him on the arrow laying on the ground at the spot where I shot her. The blood trail was phenomenal!!! I didn’t need Zeke for this one, but in about 30 seconds, he covered the 54 paces to where she lay dead.
Entrance (I missed left of where I was aiming, but kept it in the deadly “V”):
Exit, just over the opposite arm pit:
This is the 3rd critter with my brand new Primal Tech takedown longbow that I got right at one month ago. 50#@29”. Arrow was a full length, .400 spine Widowmaker Smash. Broadhead was a 150gr German Kinetic Silverflame XL.
