Wife Puts a 7 pt. Down

Post by Hester0305 »

I hunted with my wife this afternoon out of the grandkids playhouse that faces the woods in our backyard. We had 2 does come in and feed for a little while before 2 bucks came in right before dark. there was an 8 pt that has a messed up main beam and this 7 pt came in and started feeding with the does. My wife decided to take the 7 pt as it was standing broadside at 28 yards. I watched with binoculars and she sent a Truglo Titanium X Hybrid into the bucks lungs with her Stryker Katana 360. The buck lunged forward and I could see the Zombie Slayer buried to the Luminock as it ran off. We gave the deer a little time to expire and started into the woods where we saw her arrow lit up about 15 yards into the woods and it was covered in blood. We started tracking the buck and he made it about 60-70 yards and left a very good blood trail for us to follow. My wife was excited and pumped up as usual when she shot the buck she said she needed to stop and calm down a bit because she was breathing pretty heavy. We're blessed again with another deer to fill our freezer and I'm very proud of the hunter she is becoming.

Good story! I'm happy for you and happy for your wife. She isn't becoming a hunter, she's become one.
