DO NOT USE THAT ARROW
A crack or blemish in a carbon arrow can cause it to explode when you shoot it.
When that happens, you could end up with parts of a carbon shaft in your arm or hand.
that was what I was thinking

DON'T SHOOT THAT ARROW!!!! It could Fragment upon release and end up in your arm. As far as deer processing, we pay about $1.00 a pound for the deer as you bring it to them. That means cut the head off and skin it out so your not paying for that extra weight.

Don't do it!
Somewhere on the net there's a pic of a fella's hand that has a splintered carbon arrow through it. Why take the chance? If the BH is still good just screw it on another shaft and let'r rip.

If I ever get another deer with my bow I'll retire that arrow. One day, I plan on having a collection of arrows that have killed deer for me. So far I onlt have one.[&:]

2hrs maximum without waste.
Holy cow! You can butcher a deer in 2 hours by yourself? That is incredible. I'm not trying to be a jackass, I am seriously impressed. It took my dad andI 2 1/2 hours to butcher my doe last weekend, and I thought we did pretty well.

Definitely do not shoot that arrow. Carbon arrows may appear to be alright excpet for the "injured" part, but that spot may have disturbed the integrity of the rest of the arrow. I'd cut it down and make an arrow pen.
