DOES IT OWE ME MONEY?.
well, I have to say I have put down a deer hit by a car but I used an arrow thru the lungs. took about 20-30 seconds to die after that. The bad part is I waited over an hour after seing it happen for a police officer to arrive (I had called it in since it happened right in front of my house.). The officer agreed to let me use my crossbow since it was about midnight and gunshots might freak people out. Inj the future I probly won't call next time. Using a knife would be an on the spot call. Those antlers, hooves and teeth can ruin your day.
I usually carry a 9mm so if I was out in the country and there weren't any other people around I'd just use that. I've used it on some other animals that were car hit. It's funny how we hunters are the ones who care enough about an animal's suffering to do something to end it.
