Was very busy this weekend actively involved in Oktoberfest but managed to get into the woods for a little sit and got lucky.....made a perfect 20 yard shot on a small button buck.....actually in the the low light approaching the last shooting light I thought it was a doe.....perfect shot through both lungs.....ran 30 yards and expired.
Now the problem is to go back and try and find the arrow.....the lighted nock worked as I could see it in flight but since I was sitting on ground level and the shot was a clean pass through between the ribs on both sides, the arrow continued on and probably got buried under all the leaves on the ground some distance beyond where the deer stood. Going to go look for it today.
Meat in the freezer and another tag to fill!! Life is good!

Congrats on your first crossbow kill and good luck finding your arrow.
Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.
