First bow kill, spotted 400 yards away and took 2 hours to get to 20 yards. Heart shot, ran about 30 yards.

Well after a tremendously disappointing month of whitetail hunting. Including near chances and blown opportunities at P&Y bucks, I took this pup at the end of the season.

High double lung shot. He made it about 75 and tipped over. TiCon 125 with fresh blades.

I think I will switch to the TiCons from the VanDyke. No complaints on the VD though, it is a sturdy little beast  :tup:

The Ti-Con 125 may be the oldest design in our line of broadheads, but it remains as one of my all time favorites!  Doesn't seem to matter if shot from the wife's 50# bow and knitting needle arrows or one of my big boy lightning bolts.  Never fails to fly well and put animals in the dirt quick!

Though the VanDyke's durability and penetration continues to amaze me.
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

 :yeah: the VanDyke absolutely crushed my elk this year. Blew through a high shoulder and jammed very deep into the offside leg bone. Stayed straight despite all the abuse it took. Wife used the same one on her deer. Takes so little to change blades.

The new heads look super sexy though. Might have to rock them  :tup:
