re: Tell me about the best lucky shot you ever made.

Bowhunting in NW Missouri the second week of December around 2007. It was -2 degrees with a foot of snow on the ground. I was hunting on the edge of a corn field and watched deer all afternoon over 150 yards away.

One lone huge doe walked down the edge of the field to my left 10 minutes before dark. I mustered the strength to pull my string back and let the arrow rip. She looked as if she had no idea what happened. I thought I missed a broad side shot at 30 yards so I strung another missile from my Mathews Q2. I was about to draw again when she walked off away from me. I watched her for another couple of minutes and saw her do the death quiver in the field about 100 yards away.

I got down and found her tracks where I shot her. It was the longest shot I had ever made at 55 yards. Clean double lung shot. I couldn't believe the distance, but couldn't tell with the backdrop of the snow in the field. I was very lucky that day. The doe weighed damn near 300 pounds.
