Wicked Buck !!

The Deer had arrow in his neck,did it get harvested after what looked like a poor shot? It looked like it was in his neck muscle and did not phase him a bit?

Saw that as well, and thought to myself, what's up with this video, as I never saw anyone shoot ???

Other than the fact that he is a monster; I never like to see animals walking around days, weeks, months later (who knowns) with an arrow sticking out of their neck !!!

Maybe a good lesson to only take shots you KNOW you can make, NOT shots you THINK you can make......................

Here's what it said in the YouTube description... what ashame.

"This buck was shot in Iowa during Early Archery Season in 2010 he was never found and has not been seen since."

This was my video and I would like to share he is alive :) he's doing fine now. He was shot during rut and the mussle in his neck blocked the arrow from killing him so I'm told.

So why is the arrow in it's neck, which is 3 to 4 feet from where it should have been put through the lungs?

:popcorn:

Deflections, string jump, deer moved as arrow released, etc, etc.
Not all bad results are bad shots.

Huge buck = buck fever.

Thanks a lot...

Looked to me like he was shot in the cheek area. What a shame.

Whitetailmaddness... I thought the same thing. Looked to me like it was sticking out his jaw / cheek area. I shot a doe once that had a baseball sized tumor on her neck muscle. Cut into it just because I was young and curious... turned out to be a broadhead stuck in there. Not sure how long she carried it around like that... deer are tough as they come!
