I was able to sit a stand yesterday morning and was into the deer before sun-up.
By 8AM I had seen over a dozen doe/fawn. 20+ for the morning hunt.
Since I have started to build the Shrew bows for Mr. Ron LaClair, I decided that I would hunt with one this year. So I had a 49#@29" 56" classic in my hand. I draw 30"
Arrow was a full length AD Traditional. Broad head was a 185 Grizzly. Penetration was just at 30". The shot was a liver hit, so I left her until this morning.
Sorry, but I do not have any pics as she was in a tangled up mess of a swamp and once I went to her I brought her out in pieces. camera was on the shore.
The Shrew worked to perfection and put the arrow right where I wanted it to go. She turned just a tad at the shot I think and didn't give the angle I was looking for, but she is in the cooler and that is a good thing.
The shot was just about 27 paces from the tree, and the shaving sharp Grizz buried to mid-fletch fletch. The arrow broke or I think I could shoot it again as is. I will re-mount it and touch it with my file and continue on with it this fall. I like these heads a lot. Nice job Mr.Dunn.
Below is a shot of the deer in the swamp, see the white? Not far away just very thick and thorny. Also is the broken arrow
So,
