Found one! Credit to Giles for the arrow in the tree idea. Deer were coming to this spot daily but I put corn down strategically to get them in a certain spot because of how small the property is. Had a nice big tree for a backstop.

Good sized button buck and an 8 yard shot on the ground hiding under a swing set 30 yards behind thier house at the edge of the woods.The arrow was covered in blood but it didn’t show up with the flash in the dark.

That was my last deer for the year so now the countdown begins. View attachment 69753View attachment 69754

Had one at 65 yrds just as we were getting ready to head in. Good little boost of spirits.

I got settled in my regular stand about 9:25. Had a line of 7 go thru the thick stuff to my left around 80yrds, then a single on the same trail just a minute ago. Only takes one, play nice u commie bastards!

Good deal, glad it worked out! At 8 yards, hard telling where it would’ve ended up otherwise😂

Oh yeah that arrow would've been gone. The arrow broke through a rib on both sides of the deer and the broadhead blades were totally buried in the tree. Just the threads that screw into the arrow were sticking out. Not sure if that was your idea or you heard it from somebody else but good thinkin!

It felt more like harvesting a deer than hunting but the freezer is full and it was a quick clean kill so I'll take it.
