RE: Why did this deer expire so fast?
Makes sense now that you guys and gals put it into perspective. The arrow did not pass through the center of the heart. It put a big slice down the length of the side of it along with one lung taken out.Gee and to think I thought 2min was short. Those 2min though coveredto the point when the deer was motionless and not twitching or spasming anymore.
Oh Christine you were right about the steep angle suspicion. I was 15 feet up a tree that was 15 feet up from the bottom of a valley created by 2 adjoining ridge formations. The button came through the center of the 2 ridges. I didn't nick the spine though.
