Default 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.

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!

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!

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.
