[QUOTE="Ski, post: 5861929, member: 20583"] It sure would. Deer surviving single lung hits is not uncommon. And I find it hard to believe that arrow didn't get at least one lung, possibly even liver. I've been a bow hunter my entire life and have seen deer tote some pretty significant damage. That shot wasn't bad. I also don't think we can assume that is all the penetration it got. It's two months after the fact and most arrows work themselves out within moments. We have no idea how far the arrow has backed out in that time. Also can't assume it was a mechanical head because most mechanical heads have blades that articulate, which allows the arrow to back out. Whatever head was used has blades acting as a snag or barb keeping the arrow from coming out. Would really need to kill the deer and cut it open to see what was damaged. [/QUOTE]
