I was thinking about the deer i have shot over the years and it seems from my experience that when shot bucks run as far as possible and does run a short distance <100yrds and lay down. Anybody else notice this or Is this just my particular deer? :archer:
im just the opposite my bucks usually drop in site and does go forever.
Man, I was just thinking the same thing this morning, all my buttonheads and does seem to bite the bullet quick and the nice bucks run for ever man.
I find it has a little to do with age of the deer and a lot to do with if they were spooked or never knew what hit them.
If i make a well placed shot i cant tell any difference in the distance the deer travels. Usually when i hit one in the boiler room i either see the deer fall or at least hear them fall.
