[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 1976829, member: 10429"] So here is an interesting one. I’ll say shot placement is key but all animals react differently at different time’s. I shot deer close with and O6 that ran over 75 yards with good shot placement. Probably due to the fact I already had him alerted. I shot deer far away that dropped in there tracks. But here’s another kicker. I shot a doe with an arrow with the arrow going straight down hitting one lung and taking out the heart. That was the worst I ever seen a deer run. It ran into trees and everything like it was crazy in the head spraying blood alll along the way. It finally fail into a dry creek bead about 125 yards away. About 7 inches of protruding arrow had broken off at the lower chest/rib cage area. That deer was running with about 20 inches of arrow inside the body with the fletchers between the shoulder. My longest is on a mule deer at 761 yards/ 300 rum. It flattened it on the spot. [/QUOTE]
