one lucky deer
last season my friend was bow hunting one morning and a big mature deer came out. it was a massive 6 pt (very wide, tall tines, no brow tines, very heavy)that weighed wellover 200 lbs. it20 yds out. the arrow hits a smalllimb andhits it in the butt. we never find it. 3 weeks later he sees the deer again and it has a limp. he shoots at it from 15-20 yds andsticks the arrow the shoulder blade. we never find him. the next week(last week ofhunting season)his little brother is gun hunting and sees the deer about 120yds out. he takes a shot and misses and the deer runs off. now either this is one lucky deer or that is some bad luck. any opinions on this?

RE: one lucky deer
Sounds to me like you guys need to practice, wait for better shot opportunities or stay out of the woods.[8D];) I'm joking, that is one lucky deer. I bet he was a little sore with all the arrow holes in him.

RE: one lucky deer
Sounds to me like one UN-lucky deer. A lucky deer would have been missed cleanly all three times. I bet if you asked the deer, he wouldn't think he was too lucky LOL ;)

RE: one lucky deer
should be easy to find him again, just look for all the fletching waving through the woods. definitely a unlucky deer.

My Pop once shot a deer that had three wounds from archery equipment. We even found an old Bear Broadhead in her when we cleaned her.
