I was able to connect on a nice 8 point Tuesday morning. I was suprised how big a body this deer had. Double lung, Hoyt Turbohawk set at 57......yes I said 57 pounds, not 65, 70, 75 pounds. The gutting, skinning and quartering were all done with my knife from Kral (Kim Ralston) definitely my new favorite knife. Thanks Kim

It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.
