Deer was moving and I couldn't get him to stop. Aimed a little foward to compensate and hit him exactly where I aimed. Grim Reaper blew through that shoulder and buried dead center in the bone of the offside shoulder. Buck snapped my arrow in two, ran 70 yards and died. Had to use a hammer, pliers and a chisel to get it out of the bone of the far side shoulder when we skinned the buck. Given what was hit and the size of the buck, I'm pretty sold on Grim Reapers now.
As I said, Grim Reapers are as tough as they come. I've been sold on them since I started using them three years ago.
