In 2020 I was granted a Crossbow Permit in South Dakota because of a shoulder injury.
I have bow hunted since 1978 so this was a new experience for me. Draw-lock/crossbow permits are only available for disabled hunters in the state of South Dakota.
I killed this buck at 6 yards on Nov 2nd. He went 40 yards after a heart shot.

Wow, nice buck, Sharps1874!

Nice buck, congrats! Which model Excalibur did you use?

It is the Excalibur Assassin 420TD, using a EOTech 512.XBOW sight.
I was in a ladder stand. He came in to check a scrape I was set up on and was practically right underneath me. 151" Gross Score (my son says Nets are for fishing....).

Nice buck

Congratulations!! Ruined his day

Congrats on a great crossbow Buck. 6 yds. Wow, I bet that was exciting.

Well done!

Nice buck!

Nice buck! Congratulations.

Dandy....

Good one

Nice congrats!

That’s a beast. Nice work.

That is pretty much the perfect rack . It will be hard to ever shoot one that passed it rack wise. Congrats on a beautiful deer.

Side note: I needed to use a crossbow for a few years because of a rotator cuff tear. Lots of therapy and strength training and shot 3 bucks with a bow in last 3 years. Not sure of your exact injury but there may be a way back you never know!
