This is definitely not true, unless the arrow is shot from a gun. Maybe at 100+ yards, a .22 short may have less KE than an arrow, but like Culver said, its not about the KE that kills. Belo, if you had a choice of getting shot by a .22 or a blunt tip arrow at 30 yards, which would you pick? X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

But I guess you're a sucker, huh? If the shoe fits "bud". How's that chest after all that pounding? X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Doc, I usually respect the pieces that you write, but if you really think this thread is about "bad luck" then you need to re-read. No one is claiming to be perfect, but being irresponsible and sloppy isn't something I'm ok with either. In not afraid to call out those that makes mistakes either, and when I make the same mistakes, by all means crucify me. Of all people, I would think YOU would want this sport to be seen in a better light. For all you know, this deer could be running around with an arrow hanging under its belly in some anti's yard.

One hell of a shot to make that on purpose from a kid using older equipment. I don't doubt that the anti's are using this unfortunate event as a launching platform though. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

I'm on the fence about these broad heads. I use them as well, along with a couple others. Reason being that these broad heads seems to be really good at taking deer down, maybe too good. When broad heads like these make it easy for hunters, I fear the already lazy hunters just gets lazier. We've all see what happens when hunters gets lazy and desperate. I do agree that a recovered deer from a marginal shot is better than an unrecovered one, which is why I chose to carry one in my quiver. Thanks for taking the time to post the photos.

Good luck there! X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

I'm glad you're feeling well enough to be LOLing on the net. I'd be a bit more humble about it and reflect on the mistakes made. But that's just me. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

You just wasted 3 seconds of my life I can't get back. Many have expressed their disapproval of ants actions over this incident. I'm not going to repeat it to you slower folks. You lazy hunters can justify it all you want, but a bad shot wasn't the only thing ants fubar'ed. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

I don't know what you're smoking, but I just had some awesome venison ribs tonight! X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

If you are referring to Stewart In Windsor, its not called Stewart preserve. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Never made one yet, don't try to put words in my mouth fool. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

You mad? X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

You would be wrong. I've never made a bad shot at deer. But you wouldn't know what that feels like, to hold off on questionable shots. Your track record shows. Keep riding the "other hunters make bad shots" line, maybe you can sleep better at night. And I call BS on seeing the same injured deer walking around. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

LoL! I guess we don't need AR after all! X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

You not only made a bad shot, but you did so like an idiot in the pouring rain. You were too cocky, and didn't know your skill limits. You were even dumb enough to publicize that you'll hunt the following Saturday then go look for your injured deer. IMO, you I didn't do everything you could to prevent an unrecoverable animal, not even close. You never even called Deer Search, but took your own dog out illegally instead. Now you're trying to start crap with me by slander, pretty disgusting. Makes me sick to my stomach. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

2's not bad in 3 days. Makes the 14 I got couple days ago look easy. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Apparently, there's plenty where he's from so its probably ok to take these shots. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

What if its bow and shotgun only zone? X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

3R is orange? Nice offer. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

I feel like Cinderella, the shoe fits. I couldn't care less if the OP takes any advice from this thread, I have a feeling he won't anyway. Been in a few "discussions" and he's shown me his willingness to listen to others. I'm more concerned about others who think they can get away with situations like these and thinks its ok.

What ants did was not illegal. Its 100% a matter of ethics. A choice one makes based on if its right, or wrong. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems
