I think everyone needs to hunt the Island deer next year.

Thanks.  The kill shot video is a lot longer so will take a while to upload to Youtube.

The Savora TiCon 100 does it again, same broadhead, new blades of course, that I got my buck with last year and that my son missed three with last Saturday.

Here's why I really like lighted nicks. I don't think I would have found this otherwise.

Every buck I have seen since Saturday has been just like this guy.  In the previous video from that morning, he followed one of these same does past me. Just remembered, the one my son missed Sat afternoon was not following a doe, but does were in the area.

Monday evening, I went to put some newly painted boards away at a project property and a buck was glued to a doe in the front yard.  He let me walk up to less than 15 yards away and stayed there the entire time I was there since the doe was happily munching away nearby.

How old do you think this buck was?

Haven't looked in his mouth, sizewise I would guess 3 or 4.

Yes, he didn't look that big, but he is likely in the top 5 for weight of finished meat.
