Are you exaggerating just a little bit ???
actually NO
in the video a guy stuck his whole arm thru her making a fist and it didn't hit any flesh on the deer?, this was back in late 1990's and again it was on video ? and NO I don;t still have the video, was shot with a state arm's 50 bmg single shot bolt action rifle from a box blind off a rest!
it was maybe a 70 lb doe too, NOT a big one by any means and it RAN , it left a blood trail that looked like someone with 3 ft wide paint roller rolled a path thru the snow to her from the hit site!

just made a LOT of folks just say WOW after they seen it, as hard to imagine a deer being able to run after that hit, but it did?
