Default RE: Have you ever dropped a deer in it' s tracks?

Twice with a bow.

One was a spine shot doe which was my bad experience in bowhunting, much like other experiences already described. It took a double lung shot to finish.

The other was my very first deer ever with a bow that I jumped on a windy day in a grassy field. The deer spooked but to my surprise stopped, turned her head over her back and looked at me already at full draw at about 10 steps. I shot her in the femoral artery and she fell right there and was dead in 10 seconds. This was a 95 lb. (field dressed) Whitetail doe. Now that I' m more experienced, I probably would never take that shot, but man is it deadly!!
