You justmight have the makings of a fine deer tracking dog on your hands.

You might be right! I'm pretty sure as hungry as he was, he would have attacked just about anything though.

Cute pups, and a tasty little morsel of a doe. Hooray for Grim Reapers!!

Yup. They're simply devastating once they open. The ONLY disadvantage in my opinion is the entry wound. It's really kind of pitiful.

Here's a pic of the entry wound:

And one more time, for side by side comparison, the exit: (10 yards, slightly quartering away. Double lung, nicked the heart.

I had the same experience with the Grim reapers. Pretty sad entry wound ( I assume the over the top opening design doesnt open right on impact) but the exit makes up for it.
