Anybody ever shoot 2 deer with 1 arrow and recover both deer?

i think under perfect circumstances it could happen. i had to actually from 2-4 deer ribs to ribs a few years ago. kept running into eachother trying to get away from the rifle hunters and i could def. see shooting through one and into the other just need the kinetic energy to do it.

If I see one deer standing behind another then I don't have a shot. I have to wait for one to move. I don't want to wound an animal in order to take another. Its just not worth the risk. Surely if I wait, odds are good I'll have a CLEAR shot at one of them. Now the doe and buck I killed this year were with the same arrow, and I did recover both of them. The doe on 10/12 and the buck on 10/13.
edit: I did sharpen the BH and the kills were on seperate days also, not just the recoveries.

possible, but like txrookie said, unethical shot. Wait for your primary target to clear other deer behind it.

A VERY experienced bow hunter here in NC duadruple lunged a doe and a button head this year. I know this guy.....and know he wouldn't have wanted to kill the button head. I have no doubts in his story.

A guy told me he did it with a rifle a few years ago. I didn't believe him because he was a bs'er. That is the only time I have ever heard anyone claim to do it.

I think it is possible, but as said before unethical to attempt it.

My friends dad did it with a bow and a rifle in two consecutive seasons. I agree unethical.
