[QUOTE="Dan B, post: 125685, member: 367"] [ QUOTE ] Kirby , Yes , I have seen this on a whitetail doe . Same everything as your exp. There is a place that is a bit too high and a bit too low . You found that place and I have as well . Enough energy to shock the animal and put it down , but as the cross section ( of the animal ) is getting smaller rapidly up there I think the bullet does not have sufficient time nor encounters sufficient mass to expand enought to do terminal damage to the spine . Just my 1 cents worth , Jim B. [/ QUOTE ] Just as Jim said...I too have seen this happen on at least three whitetail doe.
