Took my best archery buck to date three weeks ago. He came in with the oldest buck I've ever seen.  He had to be 4.5-5.5 years old or older.  The older buck never settled and eventually walked off.  I was able to draw and shoot his partner here at 7 yards.  He ran about 75 and crashed.  I used a 62" Ben Pearson Mercury Hunter 63#@28 and 2216's with a 190gr Ribtek that I bought from Biathlonman in the sponsor classifieds mounted on a steel 100gr insert.  Total arrow weight 690gr. The Ribteks sharpen really well, are HUGE and worked perfectly.

In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

Nice work!  

Congrats and thanks for sharing!

Nice buck with a truly classic bow and arrow combo.

I've adopted too many bows that needed a good home.

Great shot on a good buck with a classic-like how you got it done.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.
