Pass thru as in poke a hole or bury in the ground?
39 deer, 3 that didn't pass thru due to shoulder hits, 6 that didn't due to spines. all the rest passed thru. But 3 of them weren't complete, just the arrow poking out.
All with fixed heads

All deer 22 yards or less:
Fixed heads: 6 deer all pass throughs
Mechanicals:16 deer, 13 pass throughs; one spine hit, the other 2 were 2'' diameter mechanicals
Is that an 87% pass thru rate?

one shot with nap spitfire, straight pass through.

one shot with trophyridge undertaker, it was a much bigger animal but it went through both lungs and came out the other side in about 15 yards. does this count as a pass through???

I've only had 1 not pass through out of 15, and that went through both shoulder blades then stuck. All fixed blade heads.

I've definitely had 100% pass-thru's with every deer I've shot (maybe 15?), both fixed and mechanical.

The only thing that didn't have a pass-thru was my moose with a fixed head at 11 yards but it center punched rib bones on both sides and lodged in the hide on the far side. WTF though, it's a moose!
