How far did it run
 
Just want to see what others think about this shot the broadhead was a 100gr Shockwave this is not my first shot of this type but the first I have photographed. I actually misjudged the yardage by about 5 yards so was a little low.

i would say 60 yards unless it ran in to a tree first

100 to 200 yards. Depends alot on terrain and brush cover.

I shot three deer this year just like that one. One made it 60 yards across a powerline, but the other two were down in 30-40yards!

Looks like the shoot i made on my doe, it only went 40 yards

I'm going to say about 40 based on past experience. But I'm thinking this is a trick question and it either stood there and fell over or it ran for 200 yards!:D

30 yds!

I shot my first buck right through the pumper...........he jumped about 5 yards and just stood looking around. I got to thinking I had missed but then his knees buckled, he ran a couple of small circles trying to regain his balance. Once he did, he ran about 70 yards and laid it down.

Actually she ran farther then any other deer I have shot in the last two seasons about 150yds if there hadnt been snow I doubt I would have found her as it was no problem. I always try for a double lung I have found that is the best archery shot you can get unless its a spine shot.

Why do you think you would have had a trailing problem, royak? Was there not a good exit hole, or did she just not bleed well?

I am surprised that the deer made it that far I had a similar shot on a large doe this year. She ran 25 yds and fell over and kick her legs a few times and was dead within in 10 secs of the arrow hitting her.

The deer did not bleed well due to the broadhead hit the opposite leg in the joint right in the middle of the knuckle bone it destroyed the left front leg but it just didnt bleed much first time I ever had that happen .

The shot I made was across the top of the heart which cut several large arteries off the heart. She jumped, took eight steps, looked around a little then fell over. I walked home, ate supper then went back with the garden tractor. Hooked her up and drug her to the garden area for field dressing then to the shop for butchering.

;) I would have guessed approx. 60 yds. I am suprised about the 150 yd. death run, considering the bad leg to boot. That adrenaline is a powerful substance which tends to amaze us.

What'd I win?[8D]

I think anywhere you shoot a deer (except spineing it) it could go 100 yards quite easily and quickly. If the deer hasitates at all, the time clock is ticking and that will shorten up the distance.

Good Luck!

50 to 100 yards depending on the terrian
