None with just 3" - but I have recovered two shoulder-hit deer while volunteer sight-tracking on the local Navy Base over the past 21 years. There was no penetration into the boiler room on either deer - and both deer were killed with follow-up shots while they were bedded. I think deer are quite capable of surviving a shoulder hit that fails to penetrate into the vitals.
