Default RE: The Dreaded Hollow Spot


Belive me it does exist! Two years ago I shot a buck a little high behind the should at 30 yds. from a treestand. The arrow passed clean through. The hit was to low for the spine. I know the spine lays alittle low. I think I shot just at the top of his lungs. But, barely underneath his spine. I gave the deer an hour and jumped him from his bed. Without much blood.
The deer was killed 3 weeks later during our rifle season. He was in good condtion
with the entrance and exit hole starting to heal up. The shot was definetly under his spine.
It happed to me again last year. I had a sick feeling when I saw where it hit him. We never found the buck dead or alive. He had a short blood trail that soon quit altogether. It does exist!
