Question? What do you do with the meat and are the rest of it, sinew, hide, hooves, etc. worth anything?

Much Aloha...  :archer2:

Great shot and on video too!  Could you tell me more about your arrow setup?  I'm putting some together for buff and am looking at different options, thanks!

I used BLack Widow Recurve 61@28 (I draw 30)
& Black widow Longbow 67@28.

Arrows
Carbon Express Heritage 350 with 100gn adapter, 100 gn insert topped with either Magnus 160gn 2 blade or 180gn Grizzly.

Both arrows lodged in off shoulder.

Cheers

Thanks Mick!  I've got some GT 75/95's and am thinking of setting them up basically the same, other than I'm going with Stos BH's.  This gives me a lot of confidence in that setup.  Now I just need to get them put together, tuned and stuck through a buff.  So you suggest a 1/4ing away shot behind the last rib angling forward through the boiler room?  Seemed to work for you!

Michael Baker

Yeah Chris it worked well behind the ribs but if you go too far back you have a lot of gut material to get through. Good luck on your adventures.

Cheers
