It Could Happen

It Could Happen

Lol I was in the blind today and wrote that at the end of a post I made on another board...... refering to the fact I only had 3 hunts left for the year.

It was a good omen I guess, because this afternoon it did happen!

Shot this Ten Pointer today with my Equinox. 35 yard shot, 35 yard recovery :D

Image

I've shot 6 other deer with either Muzzys or Boltcutters, and this deer today, shot with a Rage 2 Blade was by far the shortest recovery to date. I was a little worried trying it for the first time with some negative comments (though most seem to be second hand) but I'm sure glad I did!

Congratulations,nice buck.
I was thinking about trying the Rage,but like you I've been hearing good & bad things about them.It took me awhile but I finally got my Muzzy 125s flying great,& took my first crossbow deer with it last week,so I think I'll stick with what works.

Munch you are right. This guy was still really stinky, and was full of debris in his antlers. I guess he's still going hard!

Wow!!!

Way to go. Nice job during crunch time here in Ontario. I was hoping to get one more hunt in as well but it won't be in the cards for me...
A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.

That's a beauty deer! Congrats!

Good to hear the Rage did a good job for you. I've been very pleased with them also. :)
