First kill with a Woodsman Elite!
« on: August 06, 2009, 11:01:00 PM »
Hah!  Not what I thought it would be either!

 


This was funny, I was literally sitting at the downstairs table sharpening an Elite I had been working with, and the cat chased this guy in the room and cornered him.  I gave him a poke and finished it.  Not his night!

On a serious note, I really like these new Elites.   :thumbsup:

First blood... Woo Hoo!!! That may the first kill I've heard of without a bow... was it even on an arrow?   :knothead:

Good thing the cat was there in case it charged.  :D  

I didn't shoot it, I "speared" it with the arrow the Elite was on.  Little guy has (had)  terrible timing!

I didn't get a pass through due to the carpet, but did achieve full penetration!  I can't afford taxidermy, maybe a European mount for this one.  :smileystooges:
