[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 2950581, member: 30671"] I hate to respond as it always sounds critical in this medium. Especially when others respond to other responders. A good chair and campfire this isn't. Sucks whatever happened. I think too fine a point was put on shot selection, and the result was minimal vital tissue destroyed. Lungs are big organ, whether we call it void, or marginal the result (semantics aside) is the same, and yes blood flow through much of it is low pressure, and just oozes, not flows. Around the edges of the lungs will lead to hard or no recovery. I'm going with you made your shot, but made a low per centage choice. Next time move behind the shoulder in the crease, and smash it.
