Nice deer. Looks like the shot was a little far back.

I don't think it went too far - that pic is within 50 yards of his stand.

Quartered away as an entry wound, depending on angle, the bolt could have intersected both lungs where the right would have borne most of the damage. Same quartered towards where the wound is the exit wound. Sometimes deer do not cooperate with broadside opportunities. I figured that this was one of those cases where a decision had to be made before the opportunity was lost.

Great deer!
Slight quartering away is my favorite bow shot.

Have you ever hunted deer, or are you just a deer hunting expert like your Armchair Pondmeister status?
