finally, a big buck

Got a nice 8 pointer with the Matrix 380 last nite. Would post a photo but, like many, can't figure out how. I don't have a photobucket or hosted photo account....

After many doe and small bucks, it was nice to nail a big one (~212 pounds, which is big for here in VA). This one will be mounted (though my wife has warned me that it can only be displayed in the garage, my study, or a closet).

Diablo bolt, Rage two blade. 40 yards. hit him a little high (my mistake; forgot to adjust for my elevated position). But I hit the spinal cord and he dropped on the spot. Did a quick finishing shot to end it.

Edit: trying to insert photo

THERE'S the photo. Thanks Wabi.

And, FWIW, I used a combination of grunts from your deer call, a rattle bag, and a spritz of Buck Bomb. Not sure which, if any, got him to come into the killzone, but he came (about 10 minutes after my last grunt/rattle routine).

I'll be happy to take the credit!
The "wabi" call, of course.

Now if I could just get the same results soon.

Great job!
That's the only way I like seeing a buck when I'm sitting in my blind
