I sold my vortex and I am buying an Ibex. Need a lighter and easier bow to cock.

That's a nice Buck Aging, a wee bit bigger than my 8 point I took earlier this year. And hey, that's a good looking Vortex :wink:
Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me some venison; And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die. Gen 27:3-4

I truly hope you have many good years with your new Vortex. I know I gave it to a good home. Shoot a big one with it. :D

From the pics that buck is a decent one for sure. Nothing wrong with shooting one that isn't a "book" buck, most of them never will be, anyway! If you let all the little ones walk and pass on their genes the "trophy racks" just might get scarce in the future.

If you're anything like me those antlers will make a dandy coat rack, and think of all the $$$$ you saved in taxidermy charges. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yes, a spine shot does beat tracking and draging for sure. :D
Some folks here would argue that a spine shot keeps the deer from running toward your truck. :lol:

Good looking buck!
