Dragging deer by the nose?

Somewhere there is a discussion in a thread by BW about dragging deer by poking a stick through its nose. (I can't seem to find that thread now and am too lazy to look for it.)
I've heard of that but have never seen it done. I'm a little confused by how to go about it. Is the stick run through the septum of the nose or through the whole nose? Any pictures or diagrams of this?
And if you use a hook (like a hay hook), exactly where do you stick that into the nose?

Just pretend you are going to pick her nose for her and then just turn it sideways and go through the septum. Justbe sure to get it deep enough.

Found this, which makes it some clearer:
http://www.fieldandstream.com/node/57422
ONE-MAN DOE DRAG: Cut a strong ½-inch-diameter stick into an 18-inch length, and whittle a point on one end. Stab an inch-long slit through the muzzle with your knife, just behind the black part of the nose and across the top of the nose bone. Work the knife blade under the cartilage and out the other side. Insert the stick into this slit. Grab the dragging stick with both hands behind your back.
