My dad hit a great quartering away shot on his doe, it deflected off a rib and went to the back leg, the arrow never came out. It did TONS of damage because the broadhead almost sawed through the legbone because it was exiting there, and the inside of the arrow was poking around because of the leg moving. That doe didnt go 70 yards before we found her and only tracked an hour later. Good luck and check in the morning. It wouldnt hurt to have someone else help!

RE: Got my fingers crossed
Also forgot to post on the deer. If you hit him right in the middle there is a good chance you hit liver. You did the best thing that is the hardest thing for hunters to do by leaving the area. Go out in the morning with your bow and be as quite as you can and look for the trail and try tracking him. You may jump him up and get a shot off at him if he is not dead. If you hit the liver he is a dead deer and will bleed out by morning, if you gut shot him it may take one or two days, but don't give up and look real good and keep your eyes open ahead of you in case he jumps up. Also, how far away was he? I have never heard of a CB not getting a complete pass through except for bone shots, also what is your bow?

It was a 20 yard shot with a Horton legend 150 with 100 grain Nap spitfire b-head. With the same xbow I had a pass through at 17 yards on a doe last year , but with a muzzy 4 blade. Maybe the blades didnt expand correctly or it hit a rib.

Hey Thomas, what B-head was your dad using?

I have complete confidence in those Spitfires pwrsrtk350. Even if the BH just entered 3 inches into the buck, it opened up and started cutting. You WILL find him and way to go by backing out and letting the monster die. Good sportsmanship there.

Congrats on finding your deer. Going over night is hard to do but around here it is easy to do because there are not many yotes around here. Here is the link HNI Justin posted and is easy to fallow and use. I use the other host method and use photobucket.com and there site is easy to set up an account on, and its free. Congrats again and get us some pics!

It hit a little higher then I origionally thought. It looked centered from the stand.
