Well it takes a good man to ''fess up". Even though 2 deer does not provide sufficient data to qualify any broadhead. In my experience over 45+ years bowhunting I've noted that if you shoot a deer that is calm with a razor sharp head and do not hit bone and did not detect you after the shot they will only run a short distance and stop and either lie down and expire to begin to wobble and then fall. I've had a few deer get shot through both lungs with either a Magnus Stinger or Muzzy Phantom and only take three or four bounds then just stop and look around, walk about another 30 -40 yards and just teeter and fall over. I swear, I think that the BH goes through them so fast they think they got stung by a bee or something.
