Took a nice turkey with it in May.
Shot a nice doe in October.
Capped the year off by harvesting a beautiful 8-point buck late December.
This was all done with my Exomag.

I took a 8-point with shotgun, a button buck with muzzleloader, but got skunked with the bow.

Some of you guys take more deer in a year than I will in five or more!!!
I took my first archery deer with my Exocet mid October. 1 decent sized doe.
Looking forward to many more seasons with my Exocet.

My Exocet is batting 100% 4 for 4 (4 shots at deer - 4 deer taken):
My freind got a spike with it in early December.
1 - spike at 32 yards (Dec.?); single lung (high) went about 175 yards - recovered next morning.
I took:
1 - doe at 15 yards on Jan. 8; double lung went about 50 yards in sight.
1 - doe at 20 yards on Jan. 12; double lung went about 30 yards in sight.
1 - spike at 25 yards on Jan. 16; low in the chest major artery went about 70 yards recovered in 30 minutes inline with last sight.
