Original Paul Schafer Silvertip and Snuffer broadheads this morning. Went maybe 50 yards on a death sprint and was down in 10 seconds. Blood trail 8 ft wide.

Nicely done! Congrats

Filled my buck tag at the end of October with the wheels, so I spent my week of PTO hunting with my recurve. I had a horrid season in 2021 with it, so I didn't hunt with it until I had enough time to practice to be confident again. New WFH gig has given me back a pile of personal time so it came back out and I was 2/2 on the same morning filling my doe tags with some 5 blade razorbacks my brother found at a garage sale.

Wearing my grandpa's old hat and flannel while drinking coffee and watching deer crazy all morning has made for one of my favorite memories.

Bro if that bow could tell stories haha. Glad you’re still liking it brother.

Saw some bigger ones, but this guy came in too close on a beautiful weather night with plenty of daylight left to do my business. Longbow by Mike Dunaway of Wild Horse Creek Bows.

I really need to find somewhere back east to kill a whitetail. Nice going!

Did you say 5 blade razorbacks? I'd like to see a picture of those! Congrats on the success too!

thank you

These old things. My brother had a co-worker's older family member pass so he bought a bowcase with unknown contents at a garage sale from them and just gave it to me. It had a bunch of old XX75's, an ancient bear compound and some other archaic stuff in it. I told em I'd kill a deer with the broadheads for giggles so I spent the summer using the plastic practice heads. They're pretty neat, but I don't think my bow has the ass for them. I poked through on a quartering shot on one doe, but the other one was perfectly broadside and I got maybe 6'' of penetration at best. If I hadn't pinwheeled her I would have been SOL.

That is pretty neat, thanks for sharing. Five blades sounds like a lot of friction, I'm not surprised by the shallow penetration!

 

[Btaylor]

Still have a pile of those heads both 4's and 5's.
