Default RE: Marginal hits that resulted in quick kill

Shot a big doe in the kidneys, she went about 80 yards.
Shot a nice buck right behind the ear, he went about 50.
Hit two in the ham, one went less than 100, and the other we recovered in the morning, still alive, my pop had to wrestle him down, lucky he was only a little spike, but I was sure glad he did, it was my first deer. I was 10yrs old, and though, Wow, I hope it isn't always this tough to kill one!
Saw a fella in my club last year hit a nice 8pt at the top of the front leg from about 10yds about 20ft up a tree, below where it meets the body, and the bullet exploded and went down the leg, the buck dropped. Hard to believe, but I was there when they skinned it. No other holes.
