So, what do those of you who have been at traditional archery for a long period of time, consider a complete pass through? Arrow passing completely through and hitting dirt/tree. Or, arrow still in body of animal but, broadhead sticking out the opposite side. Just looking to clarify for my own knowledge. :thumbsup:
Complete pass through.
Where it stopped after passing thru the deer.

I like'em!!
yup its gotta be in the dirt for me
a PASS THROUGH to me is the broadhead makes a hole on opposite sides of the animal.
a COMPLETE PASS THROUGH is the arrow ends up in dirt on opposite side.
Dittos!
Thanks everyone.
Brock: That is kind of how I was summing it up but, just wanted to make sure others thought the same.
to me a pass through is the arrow in the dirt.two open unrestricted holes
Im with Brock on this one. As far as clear definitions go, I think he hit the nail square on the head.
When the animal leaves and the arrow does not :bigsmyl:

What Brock said!!
Dang Charlie, that's some serious blood trail right there! How far did you have to go?
60 or 70 yards and just under that green pine in the background. All down hill, so too far!
great blood Charlie...wow!

have to agree with Brock.
WOW!!! I'm amazed he made it that far!! Great job Charlie!!
Two holes is good enough for me.
We always called a pass through when the arrow comes completly out and complete penetration when the broadhead comes through the opposite side of the animal but is still in it .
We call an "exit" if the BH is poking out with the arrow still inside. We call a "passthrough" when the arrow has completely gone through to the ground. I prefer passthrough because the animal don't freak out and run so far and my arrow usually is not broken, and two holes are unplugged for max bleeding potential.
I call in the dirt a complete pass through and complete penetration when there's two holes, but arrow is still in.

Yup! :thumbsup:
It is not a pass through unless the arrow HAS completely passed through the deer/target, not just penetrated the opposite side. If the arrow is still in the animal, obviously if has not passed through. 2 holes works pretty well, though.
