Default RE: Can a deer go 300-350 yards double lunged?

I shot a double lunger a few years back and thought it went 200+ yrds.........but looked at it again this year and I think it was only about 150-175 yrds as the crow flys! It was my fluke Rob.....never expect it to happen again ! Most I have double lunged went down anywhere from 25-100 yrds (seems like expandable hit deer ran farther than the fixed blade hit deer........I'm guessing from the impact of the blades opening causing added adrenaline/fear whatever ) !

It was a big doe ......and it ran into a thicket and went up hill , then downhill, then back uphill (only one I have ever had do this).......it was late and I was on my hands and knees crawling trails until I found here about 1.5 hours later ..........a very tough recovery.........and it seemed like she ran forever !!

300-350 yrds...........just don't see that really happening !!
