RE: Doe No. 3 recovered in GMMAT-ville
ORIGINAL: GMMAT
I'm at the "max" (for me) on the low end of the KE spectrum for my setup and mechanicals (and I'm still pushing 70FP/KE). I've had 3 kills this year......and three entrance and exit wounds. My furthest shot has been 23yds. My closest has been 8 yds. My furthest recovery has been 64yds.
I didn't take a photo of the exit wound, last night (I still can
)....but here's the other two.....
Now really.....are we gonna pick a time like this to pick apart my setup?
And...for the record...I have NO INTEREST in finding out what my setup produces on 35-40 yd shots. I don't take them.
10 yard shot through the "soft spot" and the arrow didnt blow clear through and stick in the ground??
Interesting. I wonder why. I wonder what it would have done on a 35 or 40 yard shot? You may want to limit yourself to no further than a 15 or 20 yardmax range with that setup.

Thanks guys. I appreciate the encouragement.
Fletch....it's not the limits of my setup that makes me limit my shot selection. It's experience.
You guys (and you know who you are)....your encouraging words are awesome to read. It makes sharing these times special.
Thank YOU.
