Default RE: First Post / Deflection Question

I use to use Rocket Miniblasters. I've taken many deer with them. But I admit, I did have one doe that the broadhead just deflected off the ribcage.The angle was prety sharp. It did lay the deer open with a big gash down its side.

I tracked the deer an hour later and spotted it on the other side of a steep gully. It wasbedded but alive. After spending a minute watching it in the binoculars I decided to put another arrow in it.

I estimated the shot at 45yds. Centered the vitals between my 40 and 50 yard pin and shot. The deer just lay there with my green/yellow vaned arrow sticking out of its ribs. It must have been in shock because it didn't even react to being hit again. After a minute, it lowered its head and the tail started twitching.

I did take another deer at a sharp angle. The Rocket head did skid across a couple of ribs before entering and left a big entrance wound. This is a pic of that deer. Its been posted before.
