Post by: CRS on September 30, 2015, 11:06:00 PM

The bow is a Sarrel's Blueridge SR purchased off the St. Judes auction a few years a ago.

My son acquired the bow immediately and has not given it up!

With his JV soccer season over, he finally had time to get out and go hunting.

After a good shot, a very profuse and short blood trail led to a happy 14 year old and meat for the freezer.

Fantastic on so many levels - a young hunter coming along, a bow auctioned for a great cause. Makes you feel a little better about the world.

60" 48@28

He is drawing 26-26.5 inches.

Easton Traditional 600 skinny carbons cut at 27.5", 195gr eclipse broadhead/insert for a total arrow weight of 515gr.

Complete pass through and stuck in a tree. Shot placement was touch back, but got liver and offside lung. Doe went maybe 50 yards, with the last 15 rolling down a steep slope in the gulch. Waited a full hour before tracking, but was probably dead in seconds.

Doe looked to be 1.5 years old.

I was working late the night before, so older brother helped him sharpen broadheads, and they were/are shaving sharp.

Now if he can get his first buck. He is having some trouble. Part of the issue is he is being too picky and has actually missed a couple nice ones the last two years. Maybe this year?
