RE: Worst shot that came out Ok
Wow. that is pretty wild. Reminds me of a story. I shot a doe last year that was broadside to me and slightly up hill from my tree, so the angle wasn't very steep. When I drew to shoot, her head was reached back along her side as she scratched it with her rear hoof. At the shot, she dropped, flopped, and rolled down the hill towards me before gaining her balance and running off. The shot was perfect thru her ribs, and then thru her neck missing the spinal column and into the dirt. 1 shot, 4 holes.
But my theme of the original thread. My luckiest shot was recently, last year or year before.I botched a shot on a doe for being dumb. I hit way back and figured it was guts. The weather was misty rain and I was bummed. Until she ran 35 yds and keeled over dead. I believe I hit that artery that runs down the spine and feeds the hams.
Thisdeer was the worst shot that was all my fault and still worked out for me. I've had several deflectionsor deer moving on the shot that have worked out though.
