Default RE: 1st Buck with my Martin Hunter

arrowsmit,
"no" the broadhead went through the body cavity only andnever made it through the hide....no exit hole. [&o]
From an elevated positionand taking quartering away shotsyou have more body to go through.I'd like to have an exit hole for better blood trails.
After shooting 3 deer with a recurve, I'm disappointed. I was just wondering if this is normal for a recurve or not. Maybe I should shoot broadside shots only?
You asked if I come to full draw and "yes" I feel that I do when it comes time to make that shot on a deer.
I'm some what thinking of buying an Oneida Eagle for more Kinetic Energy. It's been years since I shotan OneidaandI remember them being smooth and fast. I don't think at that time, they were very reliable though.
