Smack down with the E-mag

Camper · Post by **Camper** » Thu Oct 14, 2004 4:39 pm

Well I dumped a 160lbs doe on Sunday evening with the Exomag, 15 yards out of my tree stand. Complete pass through, entered one lung and split the liver almost in half. Not much of a blood trail but dropped 60-70 yards away. You got to love that rush ... man my heart was just pounding. This is my 13th deer and I still shake like hell after I shoot ( and a little before). I would probably quit hunting if I didn't. I have a digital camera but my computer at home is down and the computer at work won't allow me to put software on it for the camera so no pics right now. The pressure is off, good meat in the freezer, Now I'm going for the big boy!!!

I'm finding the more deer I have shot the easier and more efficient I am at cleaning storing and butchering the meet. But I have to thank my Dad for helping me, He had to get out of helping mom with thanksgiving dinner prep to help me out, I had to twist his arm

Good luck to everyone out there who hasn't got one yet and congrat's to the ones who have!!!

Congrats on the harvest of the big Doe....Practice does makes perfect. My dad use to make dressing an animal (moose and/or deer) look as easy as falling off a bike.

I am no where near the calibre that he was but I find every animal I dress it gets that much easier and neater (sp?)! Congrats again

Regards,
Robin

Congratulations on your big doe. I wish we had 160 pound does here. The heaviest I ever shot was 130 with the my average around 100-110.

That is 160lbs not dressed so probably dressed it was 130-135 I'm guessing. she was probably 4 years old maybe 5. Nice size doe for this area but they do get bigger around here.
