Yeah, at first he was just moving his head a bit but eventually got some movement back in his legs and wiggled down slope a bit. Saved 143 grains of weight on the packout to put another one in him too!

First ever big game animal on high buck opener. Taken at 325 yards with a 6.5 Creed 143 ELD-X
"bUt YoU cANt kIlL a dEEr wItH a 6.5!!"

Nice work, bullet in the right spot does the work!

Yep, it did just fine! Full pass thru and golf ball sized exit wounds on both shots. Here’s a link to the digiscope footage

Classic spine hit with that first shot.  I’d have sent one more as well
https://www.howlforwildlife.org/take_action  It takes 10 seconds and it’s free. To easy to make an excuse not to make your voice heard!!!!!!

Holy cow Pickard that's insane could see the vapor trail of the bullets too (if I am correct about that). Thanks for sharing!

Finally made the switch from rifle and muzzie to archery for muleys and it paid off first outing.  200 yard stalk took 2 hours to get close enough in open country for a shot.  70 yard double lung brought him down after he made it about 50 yards.  Tons of fat on the rump...great eating and rewarding hunt!

My contribution for 22. My first buck with 5ish points on one side (not counting eyeguards  :chuckle:) Would of had 6 if he had not busted one off. Cool buck with some character works for me every time.
PS amazing how far they can travel with an arrow thru their heart, about 300 yards straight down into the steep.  >:(

Outstanding!!!
