Now the unfortunate ending that you might have already read about...


As I was preparing to leave my stand, I took out my VPA Small Game Thumper and took my customary practice shot before I descended.

Shot taken, I was about packed up when I hear something running in the leaves...I thought "oh no!"

But it was 2 squirrels chasing....one stopped about 12yds away ans started feeding....I thought "what the heck, I'm getting down"

So I nocked an arrow with a VPA 1 1/4" 3 blade.....the squirrel stopped feeding as it became aware of me in the tree...but it didn't move.

I draw and shoot, and it goes into the squirrel matrix move....I knew I was close...and thought I may have nicked it because it jumped up on the stump next to it.....and it acted a bit weird.

It came off the stump as I reloaded, and shot again, but I knew I'd just missed this time.

As he disappeared over the hill I could see it was laboring a bit and I thought....hmmmmmm

This is what I found...

•    

I got closer and noticed something small laying under the arrow...
•    

A closer look revealed this...
•    

Cut clean off in a perfect v-cut where 2 of the 3 blades caught it's foot!  

Crazy!!!

I did find some blood over the hill about 5 yds away, but no trace after that and the squirrel was long gone....
•    


I'm sure it'll live to gather nuts another day....but like I said, I feel kinda bad about it.

Who knows, maybe I'll get another chance at it      :pray:

I'm long overdue to wrap my hands around a big set of antlers....

CONGRATULATIONS Cade!!!!!!!!!! (and you too Curt!)

The "Hero Pics" on page 7 was just what I was looking for!!!!! (I've got an Old & Dumb computor, and I can't get the video to work,LOL)

Anyway, GREAT JOB by both of you!!!!! Cade is certainly taking after his Old Man!!! Following right in your footsteps Curt, You have EVERY reason to be proud!!!!! Years from now, all we can do is look back & see what we've passed on...

Hopefully, I'll get to experiance that with Tyler this year.....
I only shoot WOOD arrows... My kid makes them, fast as I can break them!

There is a fine line between Hunting, & Sitting there looking Stupid...

May The Great Spirit Guide Your Arrows..... Happy Hunting!!!

Awesome thread as always Curt! Congrats Cade. Great shot. I'm sure that squirrel will make it. He will just climb a little slower.

Looks like a great way to spending an afternoon with your son. At least  you are getting opportunities. Even Wayne Gretsky missed the net sometimes. Nice video Curt.

Looks like he handled it great. Everyone misses the mark sometimes. I really liked the footage of the doe after the shot. I thought she might come back. She was really throwing that nose up in the air checking the wind. Some cool footage for sure. Thanks for posting.
