Post One on the ground.
Maryland archery season openned Friday and I got to go out Friday and Sunday afternoon. Friday I saw a big doe and fawn and just didn't get them into a shooting lane. Oh well. Sunday I got a fawn under my tree and could have but thought it better to wait and let it put some meat on its bones. Right at sunset I got a doe to come into some bleating. Shot her a little back but found her about 100 yards away. Bled pretty well. I am shooting NAP Bloodrunners and they seem to work okay, but I don't think they are expanding to the 2+ inches they are supposed too. That makes deer number 4 I have shot with the same broadhead. Still looks good, just needs to be resharpened. Can't say they aren't tough. 4 times in the ground.

Hope you all have some luck too.

Vic

Nice job Vic. Meat for the freezer and time spent outdoors, a great combo!

Nice work Vic. I to use and like NAP but i use the thunderheads in 125 grains. I need to find a good broadhead blade sharpener as I use them one time and then put them in the practice pile which now has to have almost 100 blades.
