Default RE: Worst shot that came out Ok

When I was 16 years old, in 1967, I was walking back to the truck from a morning in the treestand. Came around a corner and a doe was standing at 20 yards in the trail - looking at me. As I drew back, she swapped ends and started bounding away. I released and, on the second bound, the arrow hit her directly in the anus - went up through the diaphram, and wound up in her throat. Those old Bear Razorheads, even out of a 47 lb. recurve, had amazing penetration. I regretted the shot the instant it was let go - excited kid - but got lucky this one time.
