Friday evening about 6:30 had this buck come in along with a small raccoon and two other smaller bucks. Shot him thru both lungs with a VPA bh arrow which fell out when he took a step. The Trad-Lite arrow weighted 570 grains going about 140 fps out of a 47#@28" longbow. Guessing the buck weighted about 85 lbs field dressed. Found him about 90 yards from where he was hit.
I got these photos before it got too late. The blood on his side is where the VPA exited. Shot distance was about 10 yards.
Not bad for a young 72 year old? Ken Denton

Congrats Ken on taking a nice Buck. And the fact that you are still at it at 72 years young. It certainly gives us younger fellows inspiration to look to, when we approach(Lord willing) that age. Thanks for sharing.
