Title: double lunged #2
Post by: Badwithabow on September 23, 2013, 08:49:00 AM
20 yds, food plot, she wasn't feeding just trying to get to bed, had to make a walking shot, a lil back but got through both sides, blood just pouring, with a tree shark I heard her crash... sitting tight for a lil bit

Fantastic, and yeah the TG way of story telling is like listening to my grandaddy tell a story..... It's suspenseful to say the least

Ok here's the rest, I'm kinda torn about the shot, I had to follow the deer through 3 Windows at full draw as she was steady walking, just relaxed and shot. I knew she was bleeding good as I watched her ruin off.

I'm shooting full length 55-75 gts, tree shark up front out of my grandfather's '73 Pearson cougar 47@28. The arrow was 6in out the other side. It was a little back but drove up through both lungs I'm guessing as she only ran maybe 75 yards

AWESOME! Heavy fixed blade broadheads get the job done! Seems half the compound shooters recite the same line: "I know I hit it good, but those expandables might have failed!"   :rolleyes:  That or "I was shooting from 30 feet up - I might have only got one lung!"   :rolleyes:  

Yeah, that 300 FPS speed sounds great in theory.

BTW nice to see I'm not alone wearing plaid for camo. I think I'm the only trad guy hunting here on Fort Gordon GA. And to sweeten the deal I'm hunting from the ground. I go to the mandatory sign in/out station and I see a line of pickup trucks (most new) with tree stands in the back, the hunters with all the best new camo - shiny polyester I think. I'm the oddball driving a Neon (I have a big trunk, a doe will fit in it nicely) packing a longbow and hunting at eye level in brush and branches blinds. Some have pop-ups though, which are pretty much a sauna this time of year.

Congrats on a great animal, nice job. I also have a 72 or 73 Ben Pearson Cougar, it was my dad's. I prefer longbows, but will be carrying it some this year to try an harvest a deer with it for sentimental reasons. He never hunted but bought the bow so he could shoot with me in the backyard when I was a little kid.
