[QUOTE="CharlieTN, post: 5742110, member: 10893"] The doe I killed on opening day was shot with a 100gr Stinger. She was quartering away so the entry was back on her left side and it exited just behind her right front leg, so it went diagonally through her, exiting through a rib. The shot was a bit high with the exit about halfway up her body. She mule-kicked then bounded off like she had been scared. It caused me to think I might have missed at first. She went 60 yards with a spare but traceable blood trail. Even when I found her on her side and opened her up, her chest cavity was full of blood. Very little had made it out of her because of the higher exit. Low exits allow a lot more blood to exit. One other thing that could be a culprit. If the broad head is a bit dull, it will actually tear it’s way through. This trauma to the body and blood vessels will cause the deer to clot up faster than a razor sharp cut where the body doesn’t notice the trauma. That’s why people can receive horrific wounds in battle but not bleed out, but a surgeon cuts a vessel and it will absolutely pour the blood out. [/QUOTE]
