Once I was hunting in Missouri when a nice 8 point buck came into me and was standing between two trees. All I could see was his vital area between the trees at 30 yards. I took the shot and when the arrow hit it sounded like I hit a broad. I thought crap I hit his shoulder and about 10 min. after the buck took off it started to pour down rain, so I got down knowing if I sat there to long there would not be any signs of blood. I seen the direction that the buck had went and I found the Goldtip arrow stuck in the ground right were I hit him. It was rainning really hard and no blood on the arrow and on the ground. I went back to camp and thought I go back in the morning. It rain all night and the next morning and it was rainning hard as I went out to get him. I stood the arrow up so I could find where it was stuck it the ground ater the pass through and walked in the direction he went. I realy got lucky he was just over the hill dead and the coyoties didn't eat him. On inspection the arrow had gone through his shoulder blade and just missed the one on the other side. My 70 lb bow and my 400 grain carbon arrow had blowed through. I was realy lucky to find him. At home I don't hunt when its rainning if it's realy light yes, but will not take a shot if it not a 100% really good double lung shot.
