Default RE: Lost deer....Big learning experience (long)

Sorry to hear you lost her. But you could have left it off the boards and let another member make the same mistake. So good job in pointing out a VERY common thing that happens to our equipment and the importance of re-checking it before going afield.

As for the deer, if she was still going strong the next day, I believe it must just be a muscle wound and she should be able to get the arrow out and clean it up. Many of us have seen or killed deer with a broken off broadhead healed up inside them. I guess she learned a pretty valuable lesson too.
