Little Brother Draws First Blood !

Post by Timbrhuntr »

I retired the exomax last fall when I purchased his little brother the micro 335 ! Man I was concerned if the micro could keep up with big bro who has killed everything fom moose to rabbits. Well this morning at 0650 the little bro came through killing a nice Merriam's tom at 8 yards. I had the 100g bullheads on and they made a real mess of this bird.

I would put a pic but says no space and won't allow photobucket ! Can't post the video because nobody will open it ! :(

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.

Congrats. I also will be taking the 335 out for the first time as the Vortex sits home. The size of the 335 is outstanding.

Hmm, not really a test for the Micro. At 8 yards you could have simply hit it with the limb of your Exomax!! :lol:

Seriously though, congrats on your Micro turkey. :)

Thanks guys ! Thats true the exomax seems huge compared to the micro. But seriously the bullheads don't fly that great out of my set up and I didn't want to mess with the scope as it is dead on for my regular broadheads so inside 15 yards it is 1" to right and 2" low so I needed him as tight as I could get him as past 15 yards the accuracey goes out the window ! I heard that you should not take body shots with bullhead but I remember when they first came out they said you could with the 100g then changed the statement on that. Well let me tell you this tom was in full strut facing me. I put the crosshairs where I should hit him in the neck. Well not only did the head slice his neck but cut right down into the chest and basically opened him right up. Definitely bad medicine !
