    CWD and what I should know about it

    Can't really "like" your post. But appreciate the info. I think it's shameful that it seems as a non concern to MD DNR. And without further testing, we all may be in the CWD zone without even knowing.

    At what distance do your kill your deer?

    20 yards is the sweet spot for me. If a deer gives me a 20 yard broadside shot and I have a tag, it's going to die. I shot one last year directly beneath me and it ran 50 to 60 yards without a heart (great blood trail). The ones I shoot broadside at 20 tend to hop and fall over within sight.

    troubleshooting after miss

    Congratulations! I see a lot of recommendations on here but from what I see it was a good shot, with a good broadhead but no exit so blood trail wasn't enough to follow. It happens. Magnus makes good broadheads, they come sharp but I've noticed a burr that seems to come off when you sight...

    What temps are you hunting and how far are you walking. Insulated boots make my feet freeze. More insulation equals more sweating. I wear la sportiva ultra raptor ii mid gtx and use boot blankets with a hot hands at 20 degrees and below. But it rarely get below 20 here

    Anyone Shoot 600+ Arrow Weight?

    Mine weigh about 590 But thats a 20" crossbow bolt, 200 grain insert and a 100 grain A2 single bevel broadhead. Nothing but the ground has stopped it so far. I got my first pass through on my rinehart target when I switched from magnus black hornets to the A2.
