[QUOTE="102, post: 5575369, member: 1462"] To be honest, there was one mis quote in the article. Simms said I had 345 whitetail to my credit. For the sake of clarity, that number does not include 40 gun kills. 345 is my bow kill total. Most of which were high pressured public/private land. And I specify high pressured because those deer act different after they get an arrow than low or no pressured deer do. I also specify that to explain that I have a great deal of experience with how a vertical compound bow/arrow/broadhead combination affects wound channels on whitetails. And this statement IS my area of expertise! Recovering the arrow shot deer! All kills are recorded with date, time, bow, broad head, affected organs, shot distance, blood trail distance, tag number, video autopsy of internal damage, entry/exit video, and other pertinent data. This is to give ME credibility to help OTHERS LEARN how to become more effective at getting an arrow into, then subsequently RECOVERING their animal! (RANT---I mean WHO would EVER want to take education from a hunter without credentials? Someone who had only a few years under their whitetail belts with only a few bow kills? Who would EVER pay much heed to that person. Unless of course they had a YOUTUBE channel. Then they are IMMEDIATELY an expert with INCREDIBLE experience, wisdom, and knowledge worthy of showing up on your private parcel to the tune of 2-500 dollars a trip for "land consultation" or to tell you how to set up and subsequently kill a whitetail---end RANT) Try to say that on a deer talk forum while trying to promote education in bowhunting and not sound like a chest thumper. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE. Every time I talk to hunters about deer recovery I can literally watch their backs begin to bow up as soon as I try to establish credibility. [/QUOTE]
