I spined a doe when she jumped the string a couple years ago she rolled into a creek which soon turned crimson. She was laying on a rock thrashing about, so I didnt shoot her again. I eased up and put my knife through her heart. I didnt really know what to do. I didnt want to cut her throat. That seems to me to be inhuman. I just couldnt bring myself to do that to an animal. But I didnt want to ruin another arrow either. She died within a matter of seconds after I stabbed her. Im still not proud of it, but I did all that I thought I could do to end it quickly.

I've spined critters before and just finish them off with another shot. Whenever I fill my tag, I take a few minutes to reflect and give "Thanks."

Spine shooting a deer doesn't bother me, trailing a wounded animal and not recovering it, THAT bothers me.

I finished one with a knife once. Not the simple throat slice either. It was more like a freaky killer primate murdering a deer in the woods with a knife. I'm pretty sure I was even yelling, but can't say for sure. Kind of a blur... He was tough, and put up a good fight. It was a life changing experience for me.
At first I was uneasy about it, later I accepted it. Now I'm looking forward to doing it again.
