RE: Anybody watch Keith Warren, today? "No mans Land"/ "Void"
I agree that there is no void, but I now KNOW that deer can live with what we would all probably consider a perfect shot. It happened to me last year. This buck was perfectly broadsideat 20 yards when I shot him fromabout a 15' high treestandwith a Magnum Slick Trick...FMJ arrowout of an 80# Hoyt Vectrix XL. Made a loud sound like it may have caught the off-side shoulder or leg, but got a complete pass-thru. I use white nocks and saw the arrow enter right behind the front leg. Should have been a perfect shot. It was a very thick area, and the buck took off and went out of sight. We trailed the blood for about 80 yards, and then it disappeared. Used a dog to search to no avail. I was sick! Then, I got this trail camera pic of the buck two weeks later chasing a doe. If you look, you can see that 2 of the 4 blade slits have already healed up. I still can't believe it.
Some say that buck is a zombie.

livetobowhunt, My buddy shot one close to the exact samespot one year with the same result. I couldn't believe it either. I can't explain how that happens.

I witnessed another crazy one. I had a buddy hit one in the same spot. Double lung shot but high in the lungs. He shot the deer and the deer wound up coming by me out of range. I didn't realize he had shot the deer until he got down at dark and started tracking my way. Well we had walked WAY back in apublic hunting area so when I got down I went to him and told him which way the deer went and that it was still going go when it came by me. I talked him into walking out and taking our climbers and bows to the truck to give the deer som time and to lighten ours loads for dragging. Well we stopped on the way back in a few hundred yards (this side) of where I had last seen the deer to give it a little more time since he wasn't sure exactly where he had hit him. At this point over an hour had passed and we were sitting there talking and we kept hearing something in the brush. We kept dismissing it as a coon, possum, or armadillo. Finally, we got up and walked over to where the noise was coming from and it was his buck. The buck stood up when we got close to him but he was too weak to run. So Chris cut his throat to finish him off. At this point over 1.5 hours had passed since the shot and disection confirmed a double lung hit. Needless to say I was amazed and probably wouldn't have belived it had I not seen it. I am sure the deer was going to die but I don't know how much longer it would have taken him. Just reminded me that there is never a never and never an always!
