4x4 Full "Velvet" Coastal BlackTail = BIG BUCK DOWN!
« on: October 22, 2007, 02:26:36 AM »
Hello Good People!

I know this is late....but better late then never! Some of you may have seen this posted on other sites.....but for those who haven't.........

It was my opening day evening archery hunt. We were set up on one of my favorite cuts waiting for the elk to feed out. We had been set up for about an hour when i caught something flicker in the timber. I pulled up the binos and to my surprise it was the buck i had been scouting preseason. The conditions were perfect had the wind and as some of  you can remember we had a slight rain that day. I knew i had a good chance at making this stalk. To make the semi short story shorter I riped my Bowtech comander out of the bow sling knocked up my full metal jacket with muzzy 4 blade ready to shread, and got on my way. I closed the distance to 30 yards as he feed on a fern patch. Thunk! double lung pass through. The buck ran 30 yards and was dead within a minute of the shot. Those muzzy 4 blades are bad! Here's some pics!

set up and waiting





Checking out blood soaked arrow

















Loaded up on the HawkeyeBilt and ready to pedal out!



(Note My bow was straped to my bike so i possed with my buddies bow)






Not a bad coastal blacktail!

So what's with the arrow pic (cap107.jpg)? Did you kill the elk with it or the deer? :dunno:
