Not really. That's basically what he was saying. The wider diameter broadheads don't penetrate as far as a smaller diameter broadhead. The 3-blade Rage has a smaller cutting diameter, hence it penetrates more.

So IDK was this a rage thing or just bad luck or what. Im not going to say a bad word about the broadhead cause frankly I don't know for sure. Part of me really wanted to find the deer not just because of the obvious but to see what the entrance and exit holes looked like.
The arrow was probably preventing the blood from coming out. Basic first aid says if you are impaled on an object,
do not pull it out because it could be plugging the hole preventing you from bleeding out. The arrow sticking in the wound is the same basic principle.
