Well I’ve figured out the deer I shot at the beginning of oct isnt dead somewhere after all, hunting partner had him on gamecam 2 weeks after I shot him. He is eating well and hanging with his pack again. It was getting late and had several non shooters come in to eat, one of them had blown at me when they came in, but they still went strait to the corn, they kept looking back, then he came out, dark horns so I reallly had to look with my Bono’s to see if he was a shooter, by the time I figured he was a shooter, I knew he wasn’t going for the corn, so had to make the shot before he got to the trees. I had held back a little because of his angle but think my arrow hit of a branch or something else, very open where I shot him but the arrow passed along way off. Went threw his side high then out thru the top of his back. Pics to follow.

This was the first buck I’ve drawn on in years, would really be my first bow buck, shot pigs, does. But never reallly seen a buck I wanted. I usually let the kids shoot bucks when they show up, but dad finally had some time to himself. Really looks like a good year here in Hardeman county. That’s one of the biggest bucks I’ve ever had on camera. He is super wife as well.

From the looks of the entry wound it's a mechanical that glanced off a rib.Comment

Glad he showed back up. Hope ya get another shot at him.Comment

Looks like a mechanical broadhead and the buck jumped the string doing the ol drop and roll. Broadhead probably just ran also the ribs on the outside and exited out the topComment

Good Luck Bud . Hope you get a second chanceComment

That's a very nice buck. Were you shooting from a ground blind? Looks like the arrow hit something on the way for sure. Best of luck getting him this season.Comment

Hopeing to have a shot this evening, sitting where he has been hanging out. We will see. It was a mechanical. One that has never failed me. I am shooting over 300 FPS. So it would surprise me that it was a glance.Comment
