Title: Well it's not a deer but...
Post by: Kopper1013 on November 08, 2015, 06:39:00 PM
My parents have been after this rat for almost a year now, we have tried everything!! The poop in the garage, the holes in the garden the random food chewed into is enough to drive a person insane.
Well tonight while out side I spotted this big girl eating bird seed under a bush. I searched the house high and low for a "safe" gun to dispatch her then I remembered I hadn't cleaned my truck from yesterday and my bow was still there. The shot was 8yrds I stuck her just behind the diaphram, while trying to get her out of the bush she escaped but was soon dispatched with a boot. I haven't had the best deer season so was pretty excited hahaha

My bow was a BW 52#s at 26" with AD lite arrows and 300grn field point up front.

Oh that's P&Y for sure. And good eating. The only ones you shouldn't eat are NYC rats!
Nice work!

Now that is a story and a fine kill! Congratulations!

I recommend doing a European mount on her.

Good shot.  Kill zone of a quarter, not a 9" circle.  Now you need to make a rug out of it !

In some cultures, that rat and a ball of rice would be a good day    :bigsmyl:

I have some good news for you, if he has set up house keeping and stuck around for that long, he is not alone.  You were only seeing one at a time more than likely and you will have much more game to shoot.
