Don't worry, ive taken outa buck already. I get three tags, 2 doe and 1 buck. Ill take them all. If I get to godown south, ill get to tag another buck. Ill probably head south as soon as my buddy gets off work. He is the only one I know with land in the Hill Country.

Maybe its the big guys way of trying to tell you to quit shooting the girls.
I hear he doesn't believe much in Q.D.M., something about infringing on his turf. [

I hit a doe a few days back, hit rib #6 and angled back (she jumped the string towards me) through one lung, liver, guts, and out the ham
5 hours later, still alive, a second arrow finished it.
compare that to my buddy, who hit a doe, angled away, broadhead sliced on the OUTSIDE of the rib cage, down into the leg, severing an artery and she bled out in about 300 yards in a few minutes

Amazing story. I totally believe you. With deer, as with most of life, you don't rule anything out, don't take anything for granted.
My brother shot a big doe with his 30-06 a couple years ago. 40 yard shot, broadside or quartering, definitely a solid hit, the deer spun and staggered, stood with legs splayed and head lowered. He then hit her again, this time quartering away, she bolted about 40 yards and went down. He waited about 15 minutes to approach the deer, it was mid afternoon and there was no rush. It got up and bolted away. I showed up a half hour later, we trailed it and jumped it again, had to shoot it again.

I want to believe you but it sounds pretty unbelieveable. Are you certain you didn't tear the heart or cut it with you knife while gutting it?
Seems like if you caught any part of the heart she couldn't have lived that long.
Maybe she had a reason to live.

I dn't want to be the bad guy here, but with a hole through the heart, I don't care how strong the deer is, she's not gonna live that long, relaxed or not.

RE: Super deer. Strongest deer ive ever seen
When my dad was in his 20's when he put four 12 gauge slugs into a buck that was in full rut. The thing just kept going after the first, second, and third shots. All the shots were in the chest, the forth one went right through the shoulder, keeping him from going any further. My dad still has all four slugs that he dug out of the ribs and shoulders. It amazes me what this animals are capable off.
