    Colorado Moose

    27 day hunt. Found more bulls than cows. 200 yard shot while she was at a trot with my Weaver Customs rifle. Accubond 175gr 280AI. 30 degree quartering shot. Rib busted at entry, double lung and bullet lodged in offside shoulder blade. 6 man one day packout. Got lucky there!

    draw weight ??????????????????????

    Whats your draw length? The below resulted in poor penetration and 2 lost elk. 25 inch draw 60 lbs Another thing to consider. Shoot a broadhead that has a lower angle blade. Gets you better penetration through the initial hide cut. Montec G5 for a fixed or Grim Reaper for a mechanical.

    Backcountry or Base camp?

    2 Blade Fixed Broadhead, No Blood Trail

    1st off congrats. Any elk bow kill is a trophy. All the points are above already but I'll summarize my thoughts Mostly level ground, shot probably just a touch higher than you wanted = blood pooling in the cavity. Maybe some deflection. Whole different story if there is steeper terrain...
