3A ARCHERY ANTELOPE

Recommended Posts

IF ANY ONE IS IN THE WIND FARM AREA AND LOCATES A ANTELOPE PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I HIT A NICE ANTELOPE 8-27-2020 AT 7 AM. THE SHOT FELT GREAT WHEN  IT WENT OFF BUT HE JUMPED BEFORE MY ARROW REACHED HIM AND LOOKS LIKE HE WAS HIT PRETTY FAR BACK IN LEFT SIDE (POSSIBLY THREW MEAT ON HIPS?) ARROW WAS A PASS THROUGH AND ROUGHLY 30 YARDS BEYOND WHERE HE WAS. HAD DECENT BLOOD. ENDED UP SPOTTING HIM BEFORE I KNEW WHERE SHOT PLACEMENT WAS AND SEEING DARK BLOOD I FIGURED LIVER. SO WE WATCHED HIM FOR OVER 5 HOURS WAITING FOR HIM TO EXPIRE. HE STOOD UP ONCE AND STUMBLED TWICE BEFORE STANDING. AFTER 5 HOURS OF HIM STAYING BEDDED I DECIDED TO TRY AND SNEAK IN AND PUT ANOTHER ARROW IN HIM TO PUT IT OUT OF MISERY. HE ENDED UP JUMPING UP AND RAN AT A DEAD SPRINT 100 YARDS OR SO OUTTA SIGHT. I FOLLOWED HIS TRACKS WITH NO BLOOD FOR ANOTHER 300 YARDS AND HE WAS WALKING. HE HITS SOME HARD DIRT AND LOST TRAIL. THEN STARTED GRIDDING AND GLASSING AREA TRYONG TO PICK IT BACK UP AND NEVER SAW SIGN OF IT AGAIN. FROM THE LOOK OF THE SHOT WHEN HE RAN AWAY MIGHT NOT BE A LETHAL SHOT BUT MAYBE I GET LUCKY AND SOMEONE FINDS HIM DEAD OR ALIVE.
