VC1111 to answer your two questions the blood was bright red and the reason that the blades had hair but only the vanes had blood is that the arrow was found 3/4 of the way submerged in water. I am hunting in a swamp so some places have relatively deep water and other places have none. The shot was a definite pass through, he didn't pull it out. I haven't had a chance to make it out since sat. , wed. is my next I would like to find him even though I know he is no longer good. Just want to see how the hit was and what he might of scored.
