Thats a good picture,but he will probably set up infection and not make it..In rifle season last year i seen a fat little buck eating acorns and noticed something sticking out of his throat ,it was an arrow shaft and the hole had been walered out as big as a softball,and white puss was dripping off of it .So i put him down but when i got to him the infection was so bad and smelled like nothing i have ever seen i was not gona be eating that deer so i took his horns and left the rest.PS the wound looked to be a month old.so if you get a chance to finish your deer even if its with a rifle it needs to be done.
