Tony Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 yep tonight the world must have been off tilt or something.. i was hunting a great spot and i had a super buck chasing a doe ... problem was that the buck only had 1 side of his rack the other was busted off.. he would have been a 140 /150 class 8 point ...i ttried to get a pic of him but it was to dark... so i turned my attention on the doe to try and fill my doe tag.. i had what i thought was a chip shot 30 yarder .. problem is that a small tree got in the way... i heard the arrow crack and i thought i broke a rib or something...i was waiting for this doe to just fall over whne she just walked away flicking here tail at me.. it then dawned on me that little green thing on that tree was my nock ! so hears a pic of the famous tree killer ... my muzzy got great penetration...if it was just an inch to the left i would be eating backstraps now... [image] [/image] instead im not and im still trying to fill my tag.. the bucks are going nuts here and they are coming out of the wood work... im going to take a couple of days off later this week to try and score on something....

MCH Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Re: Yes even i miss ! Great shot Tony! You were this close (..) to a complete pass through! Wish you would have come to the Okie deer camp. We sure were in the need for some firewood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swamphunter Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Re: Yes even i miss ! A little too far left Tony!! (To be dead center anyway). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck2 Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Re: Yes even i miss ! Dang! But with the deer being active like you describe, there should be more opportunities. The bucks have been going goofy here also. Seems like a week or so earlier this year than most. Are they on schedule where you are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NY911Bowhunter Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Re: Yes even i miss ! On the plus side - it will cost FAR less to get a full sapling mount then a shoulder deer mount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tominator Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Re: Yes even i miss ! man, you centered that tree. LMAO thanks for sharing. i did that once on a smaller tree. kinda' funny, i applied the slightest pressure with my index finger, pushed the tree right over, and retrieved my arrow. kinda' funny and sad all at the same time. lol. better luck next time sir.

EIGHTPOINT Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Re: Yes even i miss ! I sware that trees have some kind of magnitism to aluminum. Always seems like when you shoot close by a tree the arrow gets sucked into the tree . Never fails Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeramie Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Re: Yes even i miss ! Nice shot tony! You almost drilled that tree tap, dead, center.... My guess is the Muzzy didn't fare so well? [ QUOTE ] How much are non resident tree tags? [/ QUOTE ] ahhhh man, you stole my line! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Re: Yes even i miss ! guess what the Muzzy broadhead is still just fine...of course it needs new blades but what failed slightly was the insert on the Goldtip shaft.. im not going to shoot this arrow again but my guess is it would be ok, with a new insert..... as for the deer she wasnt spooked one bit.. she just walked away flicking her tail....maybe i will get another shot at her....

snapper Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Re: Yes even i miss ! We all have mishaps...even the "good" shooters! What I'm concerned about though is you said... [ QUOTE ] i had what i thought was a chip shot 30 yarder .. [/ QUOTE ] How do you aim on that? Do you hold your 31 yard pin a little low or right on? Sorry, couldn't resist.
