    I do not like the looks or that blood/arrow.

    Great job on the bear entropyfx.

    Nah, I never say congrats for that purpose without recovery pics, only good luck on/with recovery or my thoughts on description/pic after shot. Way too many variables in this sport.

    Dead deer is a dead deer if it's from the initial shot. We'll never fully understand the will to live of the whitetail, or any living creature, as they do not want to die either. Sometimes we eliminate that early, other times they carry it out full on survival mode.

    Why not?

    Serious question.

    I've never seen an arrow covered through the fletching with that kind of blood covering it not result in a dead deer.

    Only thing not disclosed I guess was shot angle, height, yds etc.

    If I climbed down to that arrow I would have confidence it was lethal, sure no definitive bubbles on the fletches but confidence just the same. Never seen that type of runny blood to the fletching without lung. Non-pass through dropping out during the rum sure, but not straight through the deer sticking into the ground.

    A straight thru liver shot will cover a arrow like that. It will kill a deer if so. Just the time frame is unknown. Could be 5 minutes or 6-8 hours to kill it.

    Agreed, no argument. My thoughts, again, were more to VT's description after the shot and where the blood was coming from.

    "never seen blood like that from a meat pass through."

    I was making a joke about Fin's experience from yesterday...
