Congratulations on a fine buck! Where was the shot placement? I'm guessing for the deer to make it that far it was a liver shot or part of the lung and liver.???

Any deer shot and recovered is considered a good deer(maybe even a trophy) depending on the hunt and the hunter. Congrats on a fine deer.

Nice deer, What kind of ghille do you have? I bought a Rancho Safari about 5 years ago. Pricey but a absolute blast to hunt with, the only way they see you is if they pickup movement.

I'm on the chubby side and do not like heights... I've shot better than half my bucks wearing an oversized turkey leaf suit laying in weeds, small bi-pod, leaning against trees, laying in ditches or sitting behind a ghost blind. Just one of the benefits of using a crossbow. 2 years ago a dumb button buck walk within a couple feet of the front of my crossbow! That was pretty cool.
