New phoenix owner tags 1st bow deer ever!

The arrow:
The blood trail:
The deer:
My best friend decided to start bowhunting this year....this is his first one after we hunted hard all this week in Huron County. He loves his excal!
I spent last week gun hunting at his house in Muskoka and he came to my place this week.
Two very tough weeks with hardly any deer seen. He was about to give up but changed his venue this morning and Friday the 13th was good to him! Deer was licking a salt/food block when the shot was taken quartering away....perfect shot with exit through neck as head was down.
8 yard shot...45 yard recovery
150 grain excal boltcutters
adult doe
I was very happy for him when he called me on my stand at 7:01 am!
