Deer Hunting/Crossbow Hunting - Meat On The Ground

  • Опубліковано 3 лис 2022
  • Decided to take a doe after waiting a couple of weeks into the 2022 bow season. The shot was a little far forward into the shoulder. I found the deer before I found a blood trail. After finding the deer I back tracked the blood trail. She ran closer along the creek bank than I originally thought but still didn't start bleeding until about halfway to where she went down.
    Thanks for watching & supporting!

    I shot a big doe once. A downward angle shot. Hit both lungs but a plug of fat stopped blood from coming out of the exit and the entrance was high. Luckily, she ran into a cornfield that made a grid search easy. She went about 80 yds.

    I had the same experience as you with the muzzy trocar hbx, shot a nice doe with a good shot placement and hardly any blood trail. But my head didn't open so there wasn't a big wound channel. Finally found the deer about 150 yards away. I switched to afflictor fixed broadheads for 2023 season. Congrats on the deer, great video.

  • @doncraig3665
    @doncraig3665 Рік тому +1

    you remind me of me! my experience with mechanicals is that they most often kill a deer dead if good penetration.....arrow rarely doesn't pass through with any modern x-bow. issue is they also almost never leave good blood trails until you find the deer by sight...not by the blood trail itself. evening shots are always iffy on finding deer under these circumstances with surrounding cover, terrain and bad lighting to visually locate where the deer went after being hit. would be nice to use a big fixed blade head with crossbows, but doing that has so many other drawbacks on tuning, accuracy, scope settings, passing through every broad head target known to man, etc. love the you show normal hunting...the way it actually is!! keep up being real!!

    Good stuff man! Yeah we've all had them type of track jobs. My wife shot one perfect right behind the shoulder double lung through. That deer dropped two specks of blood right there. The deer may have went 15 yards over a small hill. There she lay blood everywhere. I hit a buck with my crossbow, same think for 30 yards. No blood. Right at about 30 yards, a blood trail began, There he lay at 50 yards. Good stuff!! Good hunt!

    • @SOUTHERNLIFETIMES
      @SOUTHERNLIFETIMES  Рік тому

      Thanks but I'm not sure if you listened to everything I mentioned or not. I'm a crossbow guy. I was just simply telling people they should sacrifice a couple of their broadheads to see how it flies out of their bow. I do that before going out every season. None of the broadheads I've used fly exactly like the field points. So I sacrifice 1 or 2 broadheads to fine tune the bow to the broadheads. Some people zero to their field points & that's it. As for the deer in this video... the shot was a little far forward into the shoulder. That's where I aimed though. I've shot many deer with that crossbow that's just my 2nd time recording it.
