Bob B.- I did not get a pass through. My broadhead was sticking out of his left side and my arrow was buried to the fletchings on the right. I love my Dwyer Defiant!

Adeeden- I never measured the neck. It was huge though.

Makes it kinda hard to shoot a bigger one next year but what the heck. Great deer and fine hunting. Nothing like the feeling of shooting one with a long bow after all those years of machine bows. You done good!

Dennis,

Man what a buck for the first! That one will be hard to ever top, but it will be fun trying.

It's a good thing I have no intention of trying to top this buck...I couldn't if I tried! I have a great appreciation for how difficult it is to shoot deer with trad equip and just got lucky that he walked by me at 8 yards. To me, every deer killed with traditional equipment are trophies. I am planning to spend many years gladly hunting does and smaller bucks with no lofty expectations, remembering this special season.
