After having shoulder replacement I was forced to a crossbow or a camera, with that said I bought an Excalibur Matrix 380 and started relearning what I have done with a bow for 44 years.
I shot this Iowa Whitetail Sunday am 8:25 at 30 yards, he was the 7th buck thru that morning, with a 160" class 10pt and a 150" class 8pt all passed inside 30 yards before him. I know what your thinking, but I have harvested a number of bucks in that caliber over the years, and I had saw this buck 2 weeks ago, so patience was key. 22" wide 26" main beams

Nice!

Outstanding buck! Congrats sir.

Do you have him weighed? From the size of the head, I'm guessing near 200 lbs. dressed.
