    I hit one in the exact same place last year and he ran 500+ yards before he died. No blood. I got lucky. Took me over 3 hours to find him. I was 100% convinced he was dead..... Huge entry and exit. Spitfire 125 3 blade.
    It went through the back lobe of both lungs, cutting gaping holes.. Even though I have killed 100's of critters with a bow and arrow that incident made me seriously question the killing efficiency of a BH..
    I had a weak moment.

        Good news is you can go back to hunting.



        Joke from the hag thread.

            Puzzling I would think that would be a kill shot no doubt. Only guess I can come up with is he had both legs outstretched in front of him and the hit was too far forward and went through that dreaded void. If it hit heart or lung at all he would be a dead deer.

              Nothing in this world is for sure I guess. Thanks for sharing.

                  Looks too far forward to me.. wouldn’t be surprised if it killed him but not surprised it didn’t..

                    I had the same thing happen with a hog, except 2 inches back. Showed up at another feeder, scabbed over, 2 days later.

                      My guess is that you're right. It looks better than it is because of how he is standing. Really is the only explanation.

                        That shot is pretty much perfect. I have seen it before recently.

                          It was sharp enough to be a complete pass through

                            We had one of our guys hit one a little higher this year. Nothing, no arrow , no blood, no hair. We have looked for him numerous times since then and nothing. Put out cameras where he hung out at nothing. Who knows?

                              Only thing I got is that he may have had his head down feeding when shot. When he heard the shot, his head may have gone almost between his two front legs while dipping to push off. This would have pushed his vitals way back, allowing the arrow to still go through both shoulders, but in front of the good stuff. Just a theory.

                                I shot a buck last year with a mechanical that didnt open and that deer died. Had pencil hole size entry and exit but still took out both lungs and basically just bled internally. Got lucky finding him because of hardly no blood trail.
