Joe Kauffman Report post Posted January 14, 2010 Thanks for the congrats all! As far as the posing goes, when I shot him he topped over the edge of the ridge so I backed off for about an hour before I went after him. He had only went 75 yards but from where I was standing I couldn't see that he was down for good so I waited to make sure I wasn't going to have a foot chase through that thick junk! He was just starting to stiffen up a bit around the neck and when I propped his body up with a few rocks his head just kinda fell into place like that which worked out perfectly. As long as this rain doesn't continue into the morning, my wife and I are heading back out tomorrow to try her luck again. She got her first shot a few days ago but missed about an inch over his back. Now that she has felt the excitement of an archery shot, I know she'll be able to calm herself down for a clean steady kill this time . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
