HE SURVIVED!

[SJS]

I posted back in November that this deer was shot by my neighbors grandson on youth weekend. Not sure if it would make it through deer season, let alone survive. Surprise! Crazy!

Wow

 

[Ski]

Poor deer

 

[Snake]

Wow

Exactly even double wow .

 

[KTS]

Unbelievable how tough they are.

 

[fairchaser]

I think he could survive if he can get that arrow out! Otherwise, he's doomed! At this point, death maybe his friend.

Unbelievable how tough they are.

Sure is. Many deer have quickly died from that shot but that one just decided not to. Kid made a good shot and certainly hit at least one lung. Penetration is the only thing that might have been lacking but no doubt the arrow has backed out some. Tough lesson in the realities of bow hunting.

Summer time will be there kicker with infection. They are so incredibly tough. Wish the arrow would fall out would probably help him a lot.

He looks like very malnourished. Unfortunately he will not survive the summer IMO. I hope future pics prove me wrong.

 

[CrossVolle]

That is insane.

The exact aiming point most of us would've used unless he was broad side and it deflected.

Have to agree with Sasquatchboogie, unless that arrow falls out, I think it's very unlikely he survives the summer. Flies are already out here, noticed a few around the cows.

Crazy how tough a deer can be.

 

[Iglow]

Bet that's sore. Just think when you get a splinter that you can't dig out.

He's probably already dead. Pic was January 26th.

Think it is in the back side of his scapula?

 

[SJS]

Will keep y'all posted if I get more pictures of him. Last 2 days have been all over the property tweaking tree stands and no trace of his remains.

Neighbors grandson probably using an underpowered bow to stick a stick in a deer... Sad..

 

[THE DUKE]

Wonder why he was using a bow.

That chest cavity is full of pus.

Tough animals.

Rage in the cage

That deer is gonna be just fine. He will never reach antler potential, but he will be around next year.

2 months after the shot and only 30lbs underweight.... not gonna be a problem. Arrow didn't drop a lung, maybe didn't even penetrate through chest. He will eventually pull or break off the arrow.and be around next fall.
