I Made a Poor Shot on an MMR Spike...

Do you typically hunt without an arrow knocked?

Oh you noticed that too...

LOL! Not usually. I had shot a hog earlier (note the arrow behind the spike ) and honestly wasn't planning to shoot the spike. Peer pressure from my group text buddies got the best of me!

What camera are you using? That was some great slow motion.

Sony A7Siii 240fps of buttery smooth goodness!

Dead deer found = good shot.
But showing not just the shot but how to handle it is good to do.

When your nocking arrow your one vane looks folded over in the video at the 1:12 mark. This could've caused arrow to fly erratically. Even at 1:27 during draw back you should be able to see third vane but it's not visible.

Yep. You had a bad vane on that arrow.

Glad it worked out. It happens!

Good catch!

Don't make excuses for him!


Sometimes you shoot'em in the middle.....happens. I hit myself in the leg with the lower limb and shot the hog behind the hog I was aiming at right in the ***. Must have hit the femeral (sp?) artery, because he leaked a steady stripe of blood about 65 yards a fell over dead.

Thanks for the video!

Enjoyed the vid. Gave a thumbs up

[Michael]

Good eye!

[ecallarman]

what is the black ring on the index finger hole of the thumb release? I shoot that same release.

[SaltwaterSlick]

Good eye!

Michael, you can also see in the video when you are at full draw, the vane appears to maybe even have fallen off. It is not visible in the video of you at full draw...


Also a petty good testament to the tune of your bow... the flight via the slo-mo is pretty dang good for a whopsided arra!!
