Shanked a Six
Had this six pointer chase a doe by me yesterday evening... he then stopped at twenty yards facing me and wouldn't move while he was looking to see where she went. I thought he might take off again chasing her, so when he lowered his head to the ground, I put the Tact-Zone crosshair at the point where his neck meets his body and sent the Muzzy Shank on the way. I generally hate to take a head-on shot... but that one was very effective... he made it 40 yards with a heck of a blood trail! The Shank fully deployed on the entrance wound and exited on the deer's belly at about the back of the ribs or so... I was really hoping for the spine on that shot, but it worked out!

Re: Shanked a Six
Congratulations on the nice buck you are having a great season !
I love the vintage camo patterns on the older long limb bows I think it is a nostalgic thing and telling of my age .
is that an Exocet bow ?

That's an Ibex that I had dipped in Mossy Oak Bottomland... I think the Ibex originally came from the factory in Realtree AP. I love some old school camo myself...gerald strine wrote: ↑Sat Oct 29, 2022 9:11 amCongratulations on the nice buck you are having a great season !

Nice job Little Brother!! I sure like the camo on that old Ibex!!

Re: Shanked a Six
I'm sure y'all are getting tired of seeing my mug on here, but I think of y'all as my outdoor family... so you are stuck with me. There's always that one family member...
The good news is I only have one doe tag and one buck tag left in South Carolina... the bad news, I have a lifetime Sportsman's license in North Carolina and plenty of land to hunt... so stand by... you may be seeing more of me and dead critters!!
Backstraps for everyone!!

Nope! Not in the least! I like it all! You take the time to set up the picture and pay respect to the game we all seek. Above all, that is what I like the best!flinthead wrote: ↑Sat Oct 29, 2022 11:58 amI'm sure y'all are getting tired of seeing my mug on here, but I think of y'all as my outdoor family... so you are stuck with me.

Well done! If I had more tags I'd be at it still too. Congrats & keep at it.
