azhuntnut Report post Posted September 8, 2005 I was out shooting my bow today making sure everything was working correctly and decided to try out one of my old Interlock broadheads just to see how they fly with my current set-up. Well I must have really flinched or this sucker went way low. The arrow went under my pig I was shooting, hit the concrete and somehow just made it under my RV gate and stuck right into a spare tire I have for my little trailer . It left quite a hole in the tire on both sides. I used this same type of broadhead on a cow elk in 2001 and it actually made it most of the way out the opposite shoulder. No damage to the broadhead from the tire or elk. David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azhuntnut Report post Posted September 9, 2005 You could here the lungs deflating . I think I will do a full body mount on this one. I think the tire is only 2 ply, but this tire was almost ten yards behind my target. I am just glad it didn't hit my big quad trailer with the nice tires. I think I got lucky since this was the last day of tire season. David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BowhuntCoues Report post Posted September 9, 2005 That's too funny!!!! But I don't think the wife would let me mount one of those. The only critters I shoot like that are the slow 8x8x16 blocks and they don't treat a broadhead very good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ghost hunter Report post Posted September 9, 2005 GREAT SHOT!!! kill sight photos and story. What more can you ask for? Hey, how about another "guess the score" contest. Since it is one of the smaller subspecies, I'm not sure if it is a world record contender or not? Ghost Hunter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BASS Report post Posted September 9, 2005 Bass, were yours sheds, or did you shoot them. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They just roamed away. But these are the older "hardcore" breed. they look nothing like todays "soft" ones we have running around. (It came off my '53 M38A1 army jeep) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
