Default RE: Deer dropped in its tracks?

Last season I spine shot a six point buck. It layed there throwing its head back, trying to get the arrow out(not a pretty sight[:' (]). I had to shoot it in the front of the chest (not the best angle) to put it down[X(]. He had spun around to face me, and I didn' t want him to lay there watching me []climb down( I was in a climber) and walk over to get a better angle.
In the videos, if it happens, they hurry up and turn the camera away so that we don' t see the result. All they show is the animal falling over. Nobody wants the the anti-hunters to see a spine shot animal thrashing its head around like that. I have heard of people giving up hunting after seeing this.
