dbHunterNY Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 looks like he's packing 6 arrows ...atta boy. looks like one has a field tip to practice with and keep shooting during the season. goes to show he's doing right... nice shot. i'd even say it looks perfectly just behind the shoulder.

RTF Posted October 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 Thanks everyone for the replies. He came home from school that day and headed to the stand at around 3:45 PM. At around 6 he heard a deer off in the distance running down the hill. The kid grunted a few times and waited. He heard the deer get closer but would not commit and couldn't see it. He then used his bleat call and the deer came running in even closer but from behind him. He saw antlers through the trees (the canopy below him was still somewhat filled in back behind the stand) At 36 yards the deer stopped and he could see he had a vital kill shot through an opening and took it. it was his first time ever shooting a bow from the tree stand at a live target. Yes it was a Rage broadhead. The next night he got cocky and took a 50 yard shot at a big doe, where he learned that deer actually do jump the string (clean miss) LOL. Wyatt practices at 40 to 60 yards all summer long so making that shot was not going to be a problem for him. Some of you old timers on here might remember Wyatt from years ago when I posted a picture of him shooting a kids long bow when he was around 5 or 6 years old out in the back yard. He was dressed in hunting clothes with a face mask on and I had no idea he was shooting at my target when I peaked out the window to check on him. Oh btw the kid is 17 years old and all the archery equipment you see in the pic he worked for and paid for on his own. He has one heck of summer job working for a big company in Cooperstown NY who brings people from all over the world in each and every summer to play baseball. Google Cooperstown Dreams Park.
