he sounds like another guy on here talking and bragging about a "big bull or big buck" and wait for pics and blah blah blah.  Just more BS.  All that help he was asking for on the Alkali hunt and how he was bragging about how he'd call in a monster and not even go..........what a waste and something tells me he's full of hot air like the other guy bragging about a "big bull" seen near rainier or something like that.  Not tagging or following.

I guess when I was "younger" I used to post stuff to blatantly annoy the hell out of people and provoke a response, no matter how negative.  Now that I'm "older" I realize just how big a *censored* doing that stuff made me look. Usually people will provoke you by giving you encouragement via PM, but there's a reason they wouldn't encourage you in front of everyone else, they're just helping you make a bigger ass of yourself.
The thing that amazes me about this site is how much help they offer a person who knows it all and does nothing but spit in their face...
There are truly great people on this site and I can't wait to draw a great tag, scout hard, receive helpful advice and share it all on HW!!!

I believe this really did happen. I say this cause my brother had that tag and talked to a guy who shot a 6x4 in the head cause thats all he could see. Watched it for awile walk in circles then snuck up on it after it bedded and shot it again.
(My brother ate tag soup).

That is the buck Billbo got. I have a crappy cell pic from a buddy that shows the deer lying with an arrow sticking out of his head.  I'm not an archery guy, but who the hell shoots something in the head with a bow and arrow?? Sounds F'd up to me.  :dunno:
Title: Re: Desert archery...
Post by: Kazekurt on December 20, 2012, 03:55:28 PM
Crazy, I've heard of guys shooting for the neck, but never the head.  I don't think I'd try either with my bow; especially if there is a chance of a better shot eventually happening.  Maybe he figured it would either be a kill or clean miss.  How close was the guy when he shot?

Knowing him and his dad, probably 100yards. :chuckle:

Just got the info from my brother, shot was about 15 feet.
Title: Re: Desert archery...
Post by: Bigtine96 on December 21, 2012, 08:54:13 AM
So he aimed for the head..real ethical glad he didn't hit it in the jaw or nose.
Title: Re: Desert archery...
Post by: Kazekurt on December 21, 2012, 09:10:15 AM
Not sure I'd take that shot, but at 15 ft with a compound set up well you can split arrows.  He may have been real comfortable with the shot.  My only worry would be if the deer moved right as I was releasing.
Title: Re: Desert archery...
Post by: adamR on December 21, 2012, 01:16:42 PM
I'm not defending the kid because based on his history on the site I don't know that he deserves to be defended about anything.  However, it's possible that the head shot was a second shot to put it down.  I shot a buck in 2010 and single lunged him, right before dark all I had was a 30 yard head shot from the rear and put two arrows through his skull to put him down for good.
Title: Re: Desert archery...
Post by: huntergreg on December 21, 2012, 01:21:44 PM
I took a shot a a spike elk one year that was broad side. Right when i pulled the trigger he turned and I drilled him in the back of the head and down he went. If he ran the way he was facing I would have shot over his back and he would still be alive.
Title: Re: Desert archery...
Post by: 7ultra on December 21, 2012, 06:02:05 PM
it was his second shot give the kid a break he can hunt hes just needs to grow up a little and hed be a damn good hunter
Title: Re: Desert archery...
Post by: throttlejocky20 on December 21, 2012, 06:53:44 PM
I took a throat shot on a deer last year and it spun as soon as I shot. My arrow struck in the back of the head at the base of the skull. That deer went a long ways and the tracking was tough but we got it. Everyone has or will make a bad choice while hunting I agree a head shot is not the best shot to take with a bow but it got the job done and he has a nice buck to show for it!

Title: Re: Desert archery...
Post by: Mxracer532 on December 21, 2012, 10:49:36 PM
For those that said it was his 2nd shot YOU ARE COMPLETELY WRONG! Re read my posts. My brother had the tag and talked to him right after he killed the deer. Head shot 1st then watche it go in circles for awile before he could get a 2nd shot that finally put it down.
Title: Re: Desert archery...
Post by: adamR on December 22, 2012, 06:43:11 AM
well in that case, I agree with most... Probably not the most ethical shot, but I guess it got the job done.
Title: Re: Desert archery...
Post by: billdo5 on December 30, 2012, 03:35:21 AM
Lol first shot was in head at 10 yds... He wouldn't stand up even after I was whistling at him and I was holding my bow at full draw so I just drove it in his head... Then I had to shoot him again at 30yds to finish him off through the front shoulder in the cat tails and he ended up falling in the waste way so I had to drag him out :) love being popular haha sorry about pics... I try to post and it doesn't work.

sometimes they work but still too risky.

Maybe it has something to do with the way you come off via your posts? I don't know you from Adam, but there is a clear pattern to your attitude on this website that I think might have much to do with the replies your posts get. You have gotten a couple nice animals this year so congrats for that.
