I shot a deer with a fixed blade many years back. It was quartering away sharply and i hit it back a little farther than i wanted. The arrow had only penetrated about 8 inches. The doe ran off and when i recovered her, i had found that the running she did drew the arrow into her body cavity the rest of the way until almost none of the arrow was showing, tearing up everything inside.
Long story short, running with the arrow still inside will do alot of damage as will the arrow hitting trees along the way.
