Mission Accomplished
« on: September 01, 2015, 02:46:59 PM »
Mission accomplished for me.  Wanted to get something for the freezer.  Signing on a new house and moving next week and really didn't have the time to spend being picky.  Also removes the temptation to be looking for deer when I'm out for elk on the 12th.  Played with a fork-horn for a little bit until he got tired of me and disappeared but the doe wasn't so lucky.  34 yards and that was it.  The grouse this morning wasn't lucky either. 

So, meat for the freezer and no excuse to not be packing the house up.

Sorry, I only took a couple of photos of her where she lay.  It was a bit of a climb to get up to her where she decided to die (her final revenge).  I was a little disappointed in the arrow penetration at first, even though she didn't go very far at all, maybe 40 yards.  Then I checked after getting her home and found that I blew thru the front shoulder and thru the ribs on the other side, just not quite enough oooomph to exit.
