Deer are funny animals. Have you ever noticed that some deer take a minor hit and drop like a rock where others get a major blast and dance off like nothing happened. This .530 roundball went through a firstdeer dropping it in their tracks, and then hit a second one breaking their spine and dropping them as well.
I would have thought that Great Plains Conical would have been a real planter. Just goes to show you, you must have found one tuff critter out there. To break down the shoulders like that and not drop it just goes to show how tuff deer are. Personally I would have trusted the energy of the Great Plains over the Powerbelt. Very interesting report and great pictures...
