RE: Follow up shot thread......got me thinking.
i've shot 8 deer with a bow. spined 2 of them. one i got a second shot into rather quickly.(under a minute) the other i actually ran out arrows (3 shots). they hard to hit when there spinning around like curly from the 3 stooges. while she was spinning she broke 2 arrows and bent the other in a L-shape. i had to run back to my truck and retrieve a slightly bent but useable arrow to finish the job. i am ashamed to admit she did suffer a bit but i was young and didn't any better. i should have got out of my stand and shot her from upclose. a good learning experience i guess. the farmer that owned the land was plowing the field got a good ckuckle watching me walk to my stand and come running back out half an hour later with no arrows left in my quiver.
