[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2856039, member: 101791"] That's about how I see it. There must be a lot of pain in the liver shot. What I have seen they drop their nose to the ground and slowly back up only a feet feet and down. I have written about this several times. You are the first to respond with what happens with different shot placements. I guess most to watch how the animal reacts to being shot. One morning in Colo I shot two elk. Both were heart shots. The heart were hit within a 1/2" of the same location. They both reacted the same. There legs shot out to the sides of them. One was standing shot and the other was a running shot. Don't ask me how I got that shot placement on the 2nd elk. Never do that again. Just call me lucky. They were mostly broadside shots. See anything like that? [/QUOTE]
