U should try it it's really tricky to hold steady after the flash pan goes off :-) I would really like to take it out more In summer for groundhog but I haven't yet . Just for practice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosierhunter Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 It was a tough hunt as the weather wasn't friendly on the weekend. I only saw a shooter on Saturday night at 150 yards. The cameras were only showing nighttime movement as well. Go figure it snaps cold right after I leave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 (edited) Shot a mature doe with the crossbow. Think I got one lung as there were bubble spots on the bolt vanes. Trailed the blood for 200 yards then it started specking. Stopped the search and will look in the AM. Cold tonight - teens so the meat will be fine (froze actually). Keep your fingers crossed! Sure hope I recover her. Edited January 10, 2015 by fly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosierhunter Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 With it being so cold I doubt she can get up in the morning if she's still alive. Good luck finding her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Looked for several hours and - no deer. She never bedded and after 250 yards got the bleeding to stop. Grid searched for hours and covered a lot of ground until it became apparent that she wasn't going to be found. I hate shooting and not recovering - bummed me out. Not the way I wanted to end the season that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fly Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 My season is over. Last 3 trips out I didn't even see a deer. I did take out a raccoon last night. Way too many - I counted 7 in one trail can picture a couple weeks ago. Going to get my first coon pelt. Was nice to end the season with some blood in the truck bed - even if it was coon blood. Been a great year and I too was glad to share it with everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowhunter97 Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 My season ended on the 4th. I haven't had a day off work since december 13th. Didn't even get to enjoy my winter break from school. I'm not sure what the scoreboard looks like but I hope everyone is doing good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Thanks Frank...same here. It's all about having fun and getting to know your teammates on the forum better. My memory is fuzzy but I think you & I have been on the same team once before...Ruth too once a long time ago. Never been on the same team with Pat. Andy & I were on the same team a few years ago. Recall him killing a nice 10 point that year on Martin's place around their opener. Congratulations on the nice late season 8 point too Frank. You had an outstanding season.

fly Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Thanks Al - i was very happy to fill my last tag with that 8point. yea we might have been on the same team but it would have been a while - 2009 or 2008 maybe. I've been on Ruth and Pats team before - fairly recent. I don't remember being on the winning team so like the Cubs say - wait till next year!
