I was talking to my friend about who shot what this year and he told me that recently his ex-boss shot a nice 8 pointer in rifle season. While he was cleaning the deer out he noticed that it was kinda hard to pull the lungs out. So hefelt around and noticed that there was an arrow shaft through both lungs. To his surprise he killed the buck that he shot in archery season last year!
I thought that was crazy to hearthat a buck survived a double lung shot with a bow. I think it was probably bcuz the he was using a broadhead with a really small cutting diameter, but stillthat buck stillshouldof died. I guess it just comes to show that some deer are just tougher than others.
Or maybe it comes to show that people should just shoot them with the rage

Wow, I don't know if I would beleive that. Did YOU see the arrow shaft in the lungs yourself? Because I just can't beleive that.

Or it goes to show that some people have a vivid imagination.

I'm not believing it either.

Arrow in the lung? I am inclined to call B.S.. Note the incline, because crazier things have happened, but it does sound rather suspect.

X2....it would take me seeing first hand, or pictures at the very least to believe this.

It doesn't sound believeable but with these tuff bastards I wouldn't doubt it. If the shaft stoped the internal bleeding, who knows? You see people live with fence pickets sticking out their neck. Granted they get medical attention.

Just becase there was an arrow in the chest cavity does not mean that it was actually through both lungs. It could have been lodged in there without having struck a vital organ or only punctured one lung.

A single lung hit is normally fatal, but not always.

hmmmm.....as others said I'd have to see it myself to believe it
