Well I had this trespasser come in on me while I was bowhunting today. I shot him at 6 yards as he was trotting by me. He went 1 more yard and flipped over dead. I was using Goldtip gladiator broadheads (old school) from the early 1990's. The picture is from my tree stand 20' up.

I've shot several while bowhunting deer but have yet to retrieve one.
Never looked hard either.
They always seen to be on hyper_ alert.
swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo
You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

I’m surprised that’s all the penetration the arrow got at a 6 yard shot.
What’s your poundage set at?
Cold as ice!

What’s your poundage set at? You are looking at the broadhead part of the arrow, like I said he went only 1 more yard and flipped over. The ground stopped the arrow from going all the way thru him. I'm shooting 65 lbs.

No warning shots, eh? Nice.
No matter what I am hunting, if I see a coyote, I am coyote hunting. no matter what I'm doing if I see one I'm making an effort to kill it.
