I missed this buck Tuesday night and he was out and about last night(Wednesday) too. I'll add more later, but I am very happy with this guy, he was a real regular for us and we have dozens of pics of him and I think he may walked by a trail cam about 5 minutes before he got shot last night. I'll have to confirm that later.
I shot him at 18 yards and was initially very pleased with where I hit him, but he ran about 50 yards and stood there for 5 minutes or so before I couldn't see him. The arrow had good blood, but I would have expected him to fall sooner, etc. It also started raining at almost the exact time that I shot him and in the end I waited to go after until this morning. He made it about 50 yards further than where I last saw him. I hit the heart and at least one lung for sure, so he was pretty tough to stay on his feet for as long as he did if you ask me.
If someone shoots an arrow through my heart...I know I would never make it 100 yards away!
Time to start trapping!!! Oh...Team Old Guys are in the lead!!
