2010 Recap

2010 September Velvet Kills
   
2010 September Velvet Bow Hunt
 

3 very dedicated bow hunters. Phillip (with the kill), Joey, and Matt. Phillip hunting a 3 1/2 old deer that Snipe Creek had zeroed in on, was in a new set, adapted to move with the changing deer feeding habits as the acorns started to fall.
 
With basically no trim out on the new set, Phillip pushed the arrow through tight cover to the top side of a very relaxed seasoned Kentucky Pope and Young whitetail's heart.
 
That very evening Joey almost closed the deal on a bigger Kentucky buck, and the evening before Joey had a real monster at a few yards in the last shooting light of the day.
 
Matt had his own special Kentucky deer hunt with 2 - 115 inch 2 1/2 year old 8 pointers feeding in front of him in one of Snipe Creeks food plots for a long time.

Opening Weekend of Velvet Bow

  • 2 Clean Misses 140" - 150" Bucks at 30 Yards and Less
  • Miss #1 - One hunter missed 3 times at a bachelor group of 3 matures at 25 yards. (Proper hunter concealment kept the 3 matures at 25 yards while 3 arrows fell off the hunters string.)
  • Miss #2 - One hunter missed a Split Brow Tine Heavy Bone Mature at 30 yards.
  • Additionally some archers walked 125" Pope and Young deer, holding out for their own personal best trophy. Some archers reported seeing 140"-150" deer beyond bow range.

Kentucky Deer Hunt Details...

Steve Lovingood, Ashville North Carolina; Steve's second year to Kentucky bow hunt at Snipe Creek. Last year 2009 during the Nov Ky bow rut hunt, Steve took a Pope and Young 125 inch deer that guide Jason Mott rattled into 7 yard bow range.

2010, Steve hunted the September, West Ky Velvet Bow hunt. Steve hunted 2 stands for the same deer....altering with wind conditions. Hunting the same location 4 days in a row, the 4th evening around 6:00 p.m. the 7 + year old's heart pumped the last blood into his own chest cavity as the G-5 slid squarely across the top of his heart, severing both major valves. In 40 yards, 7 or so years of free range had ended for the Western Kentucky Whitetail.

In many years of bow hunting ,with the help of Snipe Creeks hunt plan, Steve had taken his second pope and young whitetail 2 years consecutive at Snipe Creek Lodge. Steve stayed on stand at the same location as advised and his patience paid off handsomely. The green score is 148 with 4 inches of deductions.
