I would also like to add that it was a solid double lung. I was using my 45 lb k mag and goldtip 3555 with a 125 grain steel adapters and 135 grain zwickey deltas. No exit wound, it stuck deep in the offside shoulder. Very impressed with the bows performance . The deer only made it 80 yards on a full sprint. Still have 2 more tags to fill  :)

Congratulations to you Myran! I took my first trad deer last year at six yards on the ground. There's something to be said abut up close and personal, eh? Welcome to the bright side!

Not much in this world is as rewarding as taking an animal with trad gear.  Congrats.
