Thanks all! It was an amazing hunt and I still can hardly believe the way it all played out. I still wake up at night thinking about and I am always smiling.

The cane arrow worked out great, Benjy! The penetration was good with the cane arrow. It stopped about  6” short of the feathers. The carbon arrow went all the way to the fletching. I am confident that if either shot would have been broad side and not quartering away. Both arrows would have likely made two holes.

Awesome Story Bill!!!!!

Enjoyed the "over the shoulder" story telling.  Great shooting, and a great hero pic.  That new longbow must be somthing.

Congrats!!!

Nice story and pics!  I take it that 4.5 hours of story telling involved use of spell check.    :D

Congrats and time to buy a new deep freezer!

Hopefully they are able to make this hunt more available. I would really like to see others get to enjoy this hunt.

  Tracy got to play in MN. She just had a rough way to go. The other predators sure made it rough on her. She shot a giant doe that we let lay over night. Unfortunately the wolves found her first. There was nothing left except the head, a piece of hide, and one hip bone. Then just at the shot coyotes spooked another doe.

You know me too well. I nearly wore out the spell check.
