Found dear with arrow in it
« on: October 02, 2021, 07:17:47 PM »
Kinda of a shot in the dark
Got a buck outside of Ellensburg today
He had a arrow in him
Just thought I’d try to let whoever know he did not go to waist

Nice do you have any pics of the other arrow? Just curious what you found. Where was it shot in the body?

Good job relieving his misery. Looks like someone going for a TX heart shot, or a long shot and the animal turned while the arrow was on its way. Man, those animals are tough.

I think the blades are just missing from the broad head.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

I'm not understanding what I'm looking at, is that a crossbow bolt or a two piece arrow?  Or did you cut the aroow removing it?

Is it a small game head?  What's the "wires"?

I think it's a fishing arrow.
Wires in tip and arrow is 2-piece for easy removal.

Glad you got the buck. IMO someone tried to use improper equipment for legal archery hunting
