bogobble,

You got any proof to support that?

I don't normally cut their throats but I have when the situation required. Two different times come to mind. Once was a couple of years ago, I took my nephew black powder hunting and he shot a decent 8 pt in the spine pretty far back. The buck hit the and then took off at a pretty good clip. I actually had to run him down and jump on his back (he was quite lively) and cut his throat. The other was a similar circumstance with a doe.
