Title: First kill with a Woodsman Elite!
Post by: SlowBowinMO on August 06, 2009, 11:01:00 PM
Hah!  Not what I thought it would be either!

This was funny, I was literally sitting at the downstairs table sharpening an Elite I had been working with, and the cat chased this guy in the room and cornered him.  I gave him a poke and finished it.  Not his night!

On a serious note, I really like these new Elites.   :thumbsup:

Well-done, Tim. Is that a Woody Weight you're using there?

Don't overcook those backstraps. 4-7 seconds on the grill.

Thats awesome....the tip didn't even curl!!!!

Good thing the cat was there in case it charged.  :D  

I didn't shoot it, I "speared" it with the arrow the Elite was on.  Little guy has (had)  terrible timing!

I didn't get a pass through due to the carpet, but did achieve full penetration!  I can't afford taxidermy, maybe a European mount for this one.  :smileystooges:

Great shot. Did the same thing in my hunting trailer a few years back. As said above anyone can kill a big old deer. What you got is a real traditional trophy.  :biglaugh:    :biglaugh:

I find it hard to believe that you used a Woodsman to get'em.  Looks more like a 2-blade bloodtrail to me!

Post by: onewhohasfun on August 08, 2009, 04:20:00 AM
If you get a pass thru with a 4 blade it will already be quartered for easy packing back to camp!

You have to pick a spot a very small spot and concentrate.
