thanx guys!
huntaway, that was my fear...and with a wet ground from the snow dusting melting, and a round ball hole that was likely high, i didnt want her getting up. i didnt think she would just by how paralyze she was...and knew i hit some lung by the way she was sucking air...i just didnt want her to become un-paralyzed and get up(if you shock the spine and dont hit it, they can get up after a short recovery sometimes..) and i simply wont sit there and watch an animal like that when i can quickly and humanely finish the deal....
