Default RE: What % of your shots are passthroughs??

Of the 5 deer I' ve killed with archery gear, 3 have been complete pass throughs. The first deer I shot was a button buck back in 99, my second year of bowhunting. I was shooting low poundage (40 lbs), my arrow was perfect, taking out his heart and then lodging in the off shoulder.

The first mature doe I arrowed last year provided a strange shot. She was perfectly broadside 12 steps away, and my arrow hit about 6 inches farther back than it should' ve been. The arrow penetrated about 14 inches into her chest and stopped []. No idea what happened there, I shoot low 60' s with Beman ICS arrows and a Barrie Ti-100. The other two shots I took on deer last year we' re perfect pass throughs. Maybe it was just a fluke?
