[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 86919, member: 3"] Thanks Ian, another testimonial to be dismissed by the vast majority of hunters. On the deer that ran the short ~50 yards... you mentioned it had been struck on the off-side leg bone. We're any other deer struck in the support skeleton and if so did they move also?? I've come to believe that breaking support bone(s) will generally cause the deer/critter to move from the site of impact. My theory is that they experience some level of pain from the fracture and move to put a little distance between them and the source/cause of this pain/discomfort. The problem for them is that in the case of broken support structure the pain/discomfort follows them with every step forcing them to continue to move (or perhaps after a short distance accept that the source is internal if it's an older/smarter critter). Any ideas on this conjecture from your experience(s)? [/QUOTE]
