Kansas Kanati Kill !!!
« on: December 05, 2010, 09:02:00 PM »
Nope! Not a monster buck like you were hoping, but a trophy anyways! In fact, its my first doe kill with a bow. In the 12 out of my 24 years of age i've been bowhunting this is only my third deer but I am happy to say that i've recovered all three. Here's the story...rifle season has started here so I don't like to venture very far from home (the treestand behind the house works nice) because I don't feel like accidentally getting shot. It was a cold morning this morning (finally) with a nice north breeze hitting me in the face. Directly after daybreak was pretty uneventful except for a couple spikes. About 10:00 a.m. I was starting the feel the effects from the coffee and decided to start packing up to climb down when I heard something cross the creek. Four does eventually made their way to my right (which was downwind) and I thought the lead doe had figured me out. But for whatever reason she took one more step and that was all I needed. The shot was 12 yards, double lung, and a complete pass through. She ran a total of 20 yards and went down. My setup is a 52# Kanati, goldtips with two blade 125 grain magnus b-heads weighing in at a total of 550 grains. Thanks for reading!

The ranger behind me kinda ruins the picture but she dropped entirely too close to a path not to take advantage of it!
 

My ugly mug is on the left and my most ugly brother is on the right!!
 

I bought the bow from "30coupe" off the classifieds and love it. He told me to get it bloody and post pics so here you go Russ!

Congrats Tyler!!   :clapper:  Nice deer, Shot and Bow!!

  It's not a bad idea to stay close to home during the gun season, I have heard more shots in the last few days then I have in the last 5 years combined. I think everybody is having a good season  :D

You are right it got cold here in Kansas finally.  I missed the biggest buck in our part of the woods that i have seen in the last 20 years.  I am glad to see that at least one Kansan can hit em when it is coldern old billy.  I get a real kick out of using my bow in rifle season.  Great shot, great eating.  Great memories
