Some humans have this phenomena also its a voidlocated high and between the ears. []

I might believe that this exists but I dont belive that you can shoot into this area and not hit something. You are talking about an almost 3" cutting diameter. No way. It might be there and I could see something passing through and not hitting anything but just sliding along through there. But the circumstances would have to be perfect. Like shooting a field tip and accomplishing this NO ZONE but nothing else.

I've never hit it. I can't remember the last deerI shotthat didn't fall within sight with a pass thru. Did anybody know there was a "Recovery Thread"????

Do you guys think that instead of stating that you hit a “void”, do you think the statement of “You can hit a deer in what would presumably be a vital area, and still have that deer somehow live” be more accurate?

Jeff, I would like to answer no to the question. However I took a buck with a 3 blade broad head stuck in the spine. Bone had even grown over the broad head. Now I understand you asked about if the arrow went through both backs straps and through the spine. I still think this was a very rare instance, but never the less it happened.

Nicely done mez, if you don't mind I'd like to add that post to the Recovery thread.
I don't mind at all.
