RE: Rob's Buck on Video
 

I've said this before when we talk about the void threads. My dad shot a buck several years back that had been shot previously, we figured at least a week. Holes weren't visable until we skinned it. The shot was from level, and was back at the back of the rib cage, can't recall if it was last ribs or not, I think it was within one rib, but behind the other side. Basically the shot went right thru the inner tenderloins once we inspected it. There was NO way that deer was dying from that wound and it was to the body cavity.

Oh I agre, Rybo. I hit one there, last year. I found her dead in a fence over a week later....and she wasn't gonna die from that wound, either.

But it was a FAR cry higher on her than that one was on that bucks exit wound side.







The buck in question's wound is nearly a full foot down his body.

How do I know? Simple, my family cannot shoot a lick. I have seen deer hit just about everywhere:D

All I know is this, when someone comes to me and states they missed one high, it's 70% chance we are not recovering the deer.

When they state shot them in the ass. we're 100% we find them.

When they state they heard a loud pop and the hit them near the shoulder, I make a cup of hot coco, and take a seat[:-]

Remember you are not as active as a deer, in the days sincehe has been shot he has ran, jump and got up and laid down. If he was leaking it would get worst, he'd be near water because his belly would feel like it's on fire.

He's just hungry[8D]

Rob tell the lady to get the guest bedroom ready:)

As someone who's had an intestinal injury......I can tell you the "fire" thing don't cut it. Again....I'm no deer....but my injury was a perforated colon. It was a dull ache that lasted over 3 weeks. Kinda like constant constipation (I would assume....but have never had that). It felt like I had to "go"....but couldn't.

I hope the deer'sgonna be fine....and if the exit wound area was higher on him....I'm usually the first one to give the benefitof the doubt.

I think cousins shot skimmed across the deers neck (upper shoulder) like he thought. I think the back is simply tufted hair and an optical illusion. On the close up if you stop it you see no actual hole. Cuz skimmed the neck IMHO

OMG that would be funnier than hell if we're debating spilled milk cause you would be right Chris. LOL

I need cuz to see it and tell me. LOL

RE: Rob's Buck on Video
 

dont worry Jeff....im STILL with you...i watched the videos over and over 1000x on full size and regular size....

i still do not see how it is at all possible gut was untouched...


say that SAME shot happend behind the shoulder, the far lung would been hit(assuming the arrow got through the back bone there) just no way it didnt hit gut....that exit is almost half way down his body!!! there aint a hole lot of meat OR fat on the side of a deer in the gut region...im not saying that deer is sick, or he is gunna kill over dead any time quick....but all im saying is gut was hit.


that thing on top of the neck definently looks like an arrow graze as well....





im sick of this ;) ....soooooooo......hmmm........HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN USING RAGE HEADS!!! :D

(sorry...i had to)


long and short of this is noone knows.....heck, maybe it wasnt shot at all...we dont know(though it does look to me he was shot TWICE) he seems to be doing well right now.....nothin more to be said.....

RE: Rob's Buck on Video
 

its a gut shot, behind the lungs, over the liver even .... very likely a dead deer in a few days IMO

RE: Rob's Buck on Video
 

Other than the fluffed up hair the deer act normal and is eating. IMO he got his butt kicked by another buck. But what the heck do I know?

RE: Rob's Buck on Video
 

Maybe when he stopped the deer to shoot it, it tensed up (like its hackles or whatever), while it was breating in, and the skin raised up about one inch when he shot. Then when rob seen it, it was obviously "at easy" with his belly hangin low and the skin was stretched down?? This could easily allow that buck to be shot at a very steep angle and leave a minor (but long) flesh would, right???

Only Rob's cousin and God know what happen, so we should ask one of them...PT??
