And that's why I stopped using Muzzy's. I know alot of ppl love em (and if they work for you then keep using them) but I had a similar situation happen to me. From reading your post I am assuming that you are hunting from a tree stand. I was hunting 13 ft up in a stand and shot a doe at about 15 yards right behind the shoulder. When I found her, the entrance was perfect and the exit was about 8-10 inches back and higher than the entrance. That deer was broadside or darn close. To me it didn't make sense how the exit could be higher than the entrance when shot from an elevated stand. I chaulked it up to a flook. A few weeks later I shot another doe from the same stand at about the same distance. When I found her the entrance was perfect and the exit was just in front of the hind leg. Again, that deer was broadside or darn close. Both shots deflected in the body real bad. That was the last time I used muzzy's.
