During my impala hunt I was hunting out of a large pit blind at a small water hole. The impala came into the water hole from left side of the blind from 300 yards. Instead of approaching from the left, he skirts the water hole and comes in on the right side of the water hole. I miss judge the distance and hit him low but the impala is hit well enough that he only goes 15 yards and dies in less than 10 minutes. I was very fortunate that the impala did not go anywhere since I did not have a good follow up shot from my shooting window. The reeds on the video were pretty thick from my shooting lane. It wasn't until I reviewed the video that I realized I should have been ready for a follow up shot on the window that my PH "Otto" was filming from....lady luck was on my side on this one.

 
Looks like a very good Impala. Congrats..Bruce
 
Good job Archer!

A two minute video I made of our recent Safari. I think it turned out well

Jake, Sorry to bug you again. I was wondering if you could share a. couple actual pics of this crossbow with me?

Xpedition Archery USED Scrapeline390X Sniper Gray Crossbow XACW1001 - Light Wear - Needs Bolt/Arrow Guide Spring UA5689​

If it is in a decent shape, would you be willing to sell it for $100 shipped? IS it missing the retention spring that goes over the bolt?
Thank you Ferenc
