It could have been a missed shot. Heck my first day out i shot a doe in the rear leg and i was holding on herheart. Just a mix of shakeing and a little limb. I could see a head shot with a rifle or muzzleloader. But not a bow. When i shot the doe in the leg i moved in to take her out but it was a head shot only.Even on a wounded deer laying down i would not take that shot

Have you never seen a deer duck an arrow ,turn from the string snap?? You dont seem to have to much experience. In my experience anything can happen. Hitting bow on your stand. Not seeing a limb and having the arrow deflect. The original poster didn't say if the arrow was across the face, straight on. just said it had an arrow in its face.

I disagree. Future of hunting is probably shakey due to lack of habitat in most parts of the US. This has to due with urban sprawn and the explosion of development in the past 10 years.
It's the yahoo anti-hunters influencing politicians in those urban centres that is the problem. They love how guys like you divide the hunting community.

i shot one in the back of the head by accident last year...she was broadside at 55 yards...when i shot she turned straight away from me and bolted...when she came backup it stuck her right in the back of the skull and the broadhead was in her mouth...purely by accident but was pretty cool...im not demoralizing the deer but what are the odds of that happening

lol. I do it all my friend. Bang, Thwack, thunk, patow! I however prefer to make love to my wife and not my traditional archery equipment like you. lol
The future of hunting is shaky at best thanks to anti-hunters like bigcountry and fingerzd. Yes, that's right. Anti-hunters! Just because you accept one form of hunting doesn't mean you can't be an anti hunter.
Well done boys!

But seriously we are hurting ourselves when we criticize other hunters methods. (I don't like head shots or high fence hunting). But when we get all hot and bothered with the things other hunters do we are digging ourselves in a hole that the (PETA, SPCA, ANTI hunter extremists) will bury us in. So what I'm trying to say is don't look at your fellow hunter and go nuts on him for his way of doing things, maybe show him your way and see what he thinks and band together, we cant outlast the anti hunter storm if we dont. But that's just a 16yr old hunters opinion.
