Had a rough morning, a doe walked in, and knew something was up.
I drew back fast and pulled the release trigger letting one fly. It hit her on what I thought it was a slight quartering shot. Shooting a 100gr qad exodus, total arrow weight is 450gr.
Had a good hit, through and through, but no blood trail. The wife and I looked for an hour but I knew with the wet leaf litter this was going to be tough. We pulled back and I called in the blood tracker with his amazing dog from the nc blood tracking network. He drove an hour to get to us, unloaded the dog and we found her in less then 9 minutes.
It was so quick that the only pictures I took were of the arrow and the deer hanging.
The arrow carried out some stomach and plugged the exit hole. But it was a massive wound, the qad worked just as described. I personally will stick with fixed blades from here on out after the success of this year so far.
