Finally got my first xbow deer.After not recovering the first doe I shot due to a over impatient brother in law and private property (he made her run on).It makes this one that much sweeter.She came right in on me.I was in a natural ground blind.She had quartered towards me a lot more than I realized at 15 yards and the shot was a little back so I was worried.She ran down a hill about forty yards and I heard a crash.I waited 1 hour and went looking found a huge pool of blood where I heard the crash but no deer.fallowed a great blood trail in the dark down a creek bank about 50 yards there she was expired.I would guess she weighed 110 or so.The Rage two blade left a great blood trail.It went through the ribs on both sides and hit the hind leg.The arrow was broke completely into about 6 inches down from the head,I guess from the crash I heard.The head is in good shape just needs sharpening.
