Remember the experts say it's impossible for a bee to fly and Galileo was placed under house arrest for having the nerve to claim the earth was round.We all know better now don't we?................Harold
It is a complete myth, an urban legend if you will, that any scientist has ever said that a bumble bee shouldn't be able to fly. You can google that and check it yourself. Also it wasn't scientific experts who jailed Galileo it was the Catholic church, who are IMHO experts on practically nothing.
While we are on that subject, it has been my experience that the bullet that stays in the deer with a centerfire will drop the deer faster...
I agree that this is often the case I just think that perhaps we disagree on the exact reason for it. The bullet that stays in the deer more than likely did so because it expanded rapidly perhaps even fragmented a lot. This causes a lot more internal damage to vital organs, rapid bleeding, and blood pressure drop. Heck there's always the chance that a fragment will even deflect up and hit the spinal cord. But the energy transfer, hydrostratic shock theory I do not buy. If energy transfer or a hydrostatic shockwave killed deer then it wouldn't matter where you shot them. And of course I think we can all agree that it most certainly does matter where you shoot them.
