Officially Addicted

Post by rayman »

Joined the forum 2 weeks ago. As per much advice on the forum, and a lot of research, ordered an Axiom with extra Excalibur bolts and fixed broadheads. The assembly was easier that turning on my DVD player. Practiced all week with target tips, then broadheads, then from the stand. Very little sight adjustment for the broadheads, if any, or when shooting from an elevated stand. Season started this morning. Decided to break the ice with my new toy if I saw any does. Shot placement could not have been better and the deer ran less than 50 yards. Pass-through shot and gobbs of blood after a few yards. Was concerned about how small the boltcutters are, but did not seem to be a problem. Appreciate all the advice from 2 weeks ago. Top notch forum.

Woohoo Rayman you are hopelessly an addict for life now, their is no cure but the good news is it is only fatal to other creatures unless you fall out or your stand.
Congratulations on your harvest any pictures you can post?
