Put an arrow through my target buck, what are your thoughts on the shot?

Ok we need closure

[HeyMikey]

Wow.....hard to believe he didn't die. It's kinda hard to say, or believe, the broadhead did its job, when he survived that first shot.

[Hix]

No way he survived 2nd shot
If so let em live... he’s immortal

Here is the thread to the whole story. https://discussions.texasbowhunter.c...d.php?t=785988

This was a mean trick, Bobby. Can't believe you let someone talk you into posting all of this.

This was a great learning experience. How many times do we all hear "It was a perfect shot", only to not find the deer?? Happens a lot more than people realize. And for the record, I also thought it was a good enough shot to kill the deer.

Please tell me you gutted him and checked out the evidence left from the first shot??

[Duckologist]

Void and you never found him.

No such thing

[joel45acp]

It looks just a tad high and a bit back, but he should be done. Congrats.

I should have gutted him but I failed to do so and I apologize to everyone that read this far. I will say the second arrow that went in him was quartering and got lots of goodies so it would have been a challenge to figure out what hit what.

I feel wronged. The one chance to possibly confirm the mythical void and its gone forever

[Fishndude]

No such thing

You sure?? Lol

Huh? He has not posted the second shot.

I'm not seeing it either, not on post 69 either

Do you have the 2nd shot on video?

My thoughts of the shot???? You shall name him LAZARUS because that is double lung/dead deer.

[TildenHunter]

Or quite a bit forward and lower, not sure why you’d expect different results shooting him in the same spot. It’s obviously to far back.

As evidence of the 130 comments, it is not "obviously to far back" (and it is too).......and he ended up shooting the deer about 2" from the original hole and he went 50 yards and died. I would take that kind of result everytime.

If anything I think it is a too high. If you draw a line straight down from where he hit, you would be perfect on forward/back. Just look at the post above (#127). I have killed a pile of animals with worse shots then that. I would say if you have a 100 deer standing in front of you on 100 sits and you shoot them there every time, 98+ would be dead within 300 yards and certainly not be on camera like nothing happened. Especially if you were elevated as it appears he was. Weird stuff happens when bowhunting but that should kill a deer every time.

Well said, and I was indeed slightly elevated.
