Here's my kill this week.
I shanked an 8 yard shot at a bull after the cows he was with nearly....I mean 10" from my hand as I held at full draw close, bumped around me. I had great warning with the shadows coming from behind them....it was perfect. The bull crossed at 8 yards and true to myself, I soaked a 190gr simmons into a branch hidden in the fireweed. I was certain he was smoked so when he stopped to look over his shoulder at 18 yards....I didn't shoot. I watched him hit a flat bench at 80 and he had no holes!
I stepped out my shot and found that arrow. Shit.
Next day I have a 24 yard shot with a sapling covering the vitals so I pass.
Since then I haven't had a shot and proceeded to break my riser coming down a nasty hill.
Good riddance as that damn thing was more into wood than fur. I have a wheel bow in my hands as a get by till tomorrow when I can run to town and grab my toelkes.
