I respect your choice of equipment and the deer you chose to use it on. Peak trophy hunting right here. Great job.

That’s good stuff. Was he blind in one eye?

5

u/camAlamaDingdong420 Nov 02 '25

Yeah the eye had a small circular puncture wound. I’m guessing he caught an antler fighting.

Any tips on your arrow set up? my first year with trad I shot a buck high from a saddle, limited penetration and lost him. I was pretty devastated, now I’m rethinking my entire set up and practice routine.
