[QUOTE="Cuz, post: 1903208, member: 80752"] I would rather have a bullet over penetrate than under penetrate. Even if you shoot an animal through both shoulders and drop him on the spot he will live until his brain runs out of oxygen. I totally agree that an animals demeanor and whether he gets hit on an intake or exhale has a lot to do with how quickly they die. A good bullet or broadhead through the heart/lungs may take 10-12 seconds for them to expire, but it’s still the most humane way they are likely to die. [/QUOTE]
