How fast was the deer going when he went head on with that tree? JK

I spy a Simmons or Centaur Battle Axe in that second pic. I gotta get me some of these heads.

I forgot to take off my artic shield boot covers off while I was walking out the blood trail.  I wouldn't recommend it when using Simmons Land Shark 160's.   :thumbsup:

Decided to try using a ghillie suit this year and see if I could get a deer on the ground with my bow.  I had an old piece of burlap that I got from Charlie Lamb when I went on the first Texas Sweat hunt. I was wearing it like a poncho when I shot my first pig. It had basically hung on the garage wall since that time.  This fall I cut up a lot of old camo shirts plus every other scrap piece of fabric I could find, including a couple of my boys shirts they had out grown. I tied them all to the burlap.  Then I took an old booney hat and used some fabric glue to give it some texture with some strips of fabric. It may not look like much but its homemade and it was free!

I had two does come in from the north and meet up with another deer from the south.  They looked at each other for a second and then the doe from the south gave me a good once over.  She didn't look like she was really comfortable that I wasn't a threat and started to take the other two does out of the area. This doe was the last in line and when her head went behind a tree I came to full drawn and was waiting for her when her chest cleared the trunk.  I knew it was solid at first glance.  That is such a great feeling to see an arrow buried up to the fletch as a deer takes off.

Just a doe but I couldn't be any happier!  

By the way this is the cleaned up pictures.  When I found her it did look like a chainsaw type of wound. Foamy blood was all over her shoulder and neck.

Like a Colorado guide said after I ran a big broadhead through a young elk, "A blood trail Helen Keller could follow". Love them big heads and the big holes they make!
