[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2856021, member: 101791"] Seen this done with Antelope too. In the early 80 hunt in Wheatlin WY. A friend shot a buck Antelope. and hit it:rolleyes: a couple of times. It stop and started backing up with it's nose to the ground, and in pain. It drop over dead. He was madder that hell at me for not placing another shot into it. As we gutted it I showed him the same thing. Me I hate to put another bullet into them is not needed. My cousins point this out to me in my 20's about 50 years ago. I have watch and made it happen a great many times. I have also shown my boys this too. I think the best one was a hunter friend told me about two deer he had shot. One was wounded and just at that time a couple of boys shown up.They were young, They wanted a deer too. He told them there was one just over the hill some. The Boys went over there. He said they must have shot it 10 times. He figured there wasn't much left of that deer. He also said he bet the dad when he could up with them. They probable got a butt wipping. That deer had to be just full holes. [/QUOTE]
