although i do agree that what he did what wrong in some ways, i think that a lot of the people here would have done the same thing under those circumstances. he was really sure that he had completely missed, and there were still a good number of deer in range sitting around.
now i do agree with one thing that was said. if u gutshot a deer and then spined one, all prolly within 20 yds or less, you do need some more practice.
