Into Position

"Finally after getting into position and keeping an eye out for the second lion I got up to 30 yards. He growled and was staring straight at me. I drew and side stepped to the left as he turned to face me slightly. I released the arrow and everything went in to slow motion. The lion let out a loud growl and started to charge at me! Steven the PH was on my right and a little behind me, he started yelling for me to come. You don't have to tell me twice! I made it to the truck in about 2.1 seconds, leaped on to the side of the rack and crawled in to the truck. I broke the stabilizer off my bow in the process. Turns out the lion only came a few yards then turned and went the other direction. I looked at Tim and he was shaking, I looked at my legs and they were also! Wow! We followed him up with the truck and found him in a very thick bush."

Patrick Hagens used a 950 grain GrizzlyStik Momentum arrow and Ashby broadhead.
