Took this dandy today.... 245 on the hoof, 209 field dressed... NOW is the time to be in the woods! Good luck to you all! This guy and another LARGE (140's) eight pointer came in after I had a doe go through earlier in the day, closest I have come to seeing two bucks of this caliber square off.... This deer motioned to the other one.... after the eight decided he wanted no part this guy turned and walked less than twenty yds away....smoked him...went 40 -50 yds! Hard quartering away shot... I would say its on! The big boys are out! Sit all day! This stud was a warrior, had a gore wound in his neck, and right in front of his right eye. The bruising on his chest was crazy, when I peeled back the skin it looked as if he had been hit by a car... You can see the tine marks on his chest from fighting!

No, The one in the quiver is a NAP Shockwave, and it is my finishing arrow that i had used on a doe... Just never cleaned it up.... Never tried the Rage's.... I shot this guy with a G5 Striker. I cant see your pic here at work, but I'll check it out at home.
