Archery Deer In Michigan
I got this guy this morning as he was chasing a doe. I tried to get him to stop with no luck. He did slow down briefly which is all it took. That's why I love instinctive shooting, I just came to anchor and the ol' computer did all of the calculations. I released the arrow and the 2 met. The shot looked low to me but in reality it couldn't have been better. I watched him die about 40 yards from where I shot him.
My bow is a 45# Samick Sage, shooting a Gold Tip shaft with a 125 grain Grizzly mounted on a 125 grain Ace Broadhead adapter.
No time to video him coming in but I've got a shaky video of the recovery.

Re: Archery Deer In Michigan
Congrats! Nice deer to start your retirement!
Thanks for sharing the video; beautiful morning the Lord blessed you with. Looks pretty dry out. Firearms deer season opens up this morning in Missouri.
How long were you in the stand?

Re: Archery Deer In Michigan
Nice deer. Rifle season opened last weekend in the central section of NC where I hunt. I’ve seen a 10 point a couple of times during our bow and black powder seasons but he wouldn’t come in range. I haven’t hunted yet during the gun season but I’m going this weekend. Hope to see him again because he’ll be in range of my rifle

Re: Archery Deer In Michigan
I've hunted with longbow for years and about 8 years back started hunting with a Robertson Vision Falcon that I purchased second hand. Nice bow. Two years ago I was having issues with my shoulder and purchased a 45# Samick Sage recurve after working through the issue with 25# then a 38# bow I had hanging in the basement. I liked the Sage so much it's become my hunting bow.
I've been to the Expo but it's kind of an expensive show. I attended the Compton shoot every year. It's only about 25 miles from my house. Our daughter and I usually camp for the weekend.
Do you ever go to the Eastern Traditional shoot in Coudersport, PA? It's a great shoot!
