West Virginia Bow Kill.
Howdy all, I haven't bow hunted in over 5 years. This year I took my bow to one of my buddies that owns a bow shop.
Asked him to go over my Hoyt Vectrix I bought in 2007 and my Gold tip Expedition carbon arrows. A week later he calls, said everything ready.
He put a new string on the bow and reflect my arrows. Set the poundage on the bow to 55lbs.. This made it much easier to draw back. Practice from August to October, are season opens first of Oct.
Last weekend I put up a new ladder stand.
Today I got in my stand at 0.dark30 at 33*
Like to of froze my a.. off. But I stuck it out. Seen deer all morning, the ruts in .
Little bucks chasing does. A shooter 6 point came in, this deer is 4 to 5 years old,
But only a 6 . Seen him last year.
He came in to 25yds, good distance for me. Pulled my bow back and let that Gold Tip with a 145 Delta Snuffer fly. Can't help but say I made a perfect shot, Double Lung, it went through him so fast he stood there for a few seconds wondering what just happened. Then stumbled around bouncing from tree to tree for about 30yds, fell over sideways.
I sat down shaking, I hung my bow on a hook setting there saying Holy Moly
Thank You Lord. I have shot 50 to 60 deer combined with Bow and Rifle. And it's still just as exciting as my First deer.
Pictures aren't the best but Thanks for taking the time to read this.
