[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 236044, member: 2011"] Good post. Ya toughed it out. That's important plus it's good that you madeIf it. I'd rather have pnu. and hunt than have pnu and not hunt.:rolleyes: Regarding the results of the shot, stranger things have happened but not often. It may be that he was hit high in the withers, above the spine. You would get the SMACK and the flop. I saw that happen to a 6x6 bull elk once. It rang his bell and he ended up belly up. But awakened with vigar when the newbie hunter straddled his belly and touched him with the knife. The elk was stuck as if his head was in a squeeze chut. The fella was pretty black and blue from knee to chest, front and back. Second shot finished the job. A hit in one of the spines about the shoulder can be pretty shocking to the back end of the deer and I would imagine that he could possibly come out of it if the spine were unharmed. Just a thought.
