RE: Blood trails
Todd, That shot was from a stand. When I initially field dressed the deer, I thought my homemade head was lost. When my knife hit steel upon butchering, however, I realized the head had lodged deeply in the far leg bone. It took a pair of big pliers and alot of muscle to get it out. Apparently, the deer's legs acted like scissors when it took off and sheared the arrow off right behind the head.
