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.

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!

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.

Think I have shot 2 with my bow

Have not found a single one

Think I just scratched one but the other one was definitely hit hard

One time while deer hunting in New Hampshire I was using a deer bleat call and shot 4 coyotes.They just kept coming in and I kept shooting.

That's worth at least one fawn, probably more.

No warning shots, eh? Nice.

No matter what I am hunting, if I see a coyote, I am coyote hunting.
