RE: Accident or intentional?
I know a good share of gun hunters around my area are shooting at deer 70 some yards away with slugs (shot guns) and not having a clue what there even shooting at. Half the time they don't even know If Its a buck or doe, pretty sad! I've got some pretty sad so called hunters around my area, been that way for all to long around here. When there shooting at them ranges with deer running anything Is possible where there going to hit them. It also seems some of these people think the head shot Is the almighty shot to be taking. I've told them my thoughts that a head shot Is a tough shot to make, small target. I hear the same old thing every time, "It's not that tough". I then usually ask how many shots did It take you to hit the deer then? You know that answer. Some people are there own worst enemy In there Idea's of shot placement bow or gun.
Intentional or not In your case Hoytail, who knows.
