Gentlemen, just to clear up blood/hair on the broadhead/arrow after the shot, I have an experience I'd like to share.... I shot my best buck to date while it was standing broadside...20 yards...easy shot.. After the shot, I saw where the arrow went & I thought for sure I had a clean low miss.. I climbed down & found my arrow...the spitfire deployed, but no hair or blood on the broadhead or arrow shaft. On 1 blazer fletch there was a SMALL streak of blood across one side of 1 fletch. I figured I must of just grazed him, gave him a paper cut or something but instinct told me to walk off into the direction he ran...not 30 yards from where i shot, it looked like a hose stream of blood on the ground, my easiest most profound bloodtrail to date. I ended up hitting this buck very low in front of the 2 front legs at the base of the neck. (where the neck meets the front legs) NO major organs were hit, the spitfire cut an artery and the buck made it about 300 yards before he ran out of liquid... Point of the story is, never use solely what you find on your arrow/broadhead to determine if you've made a fatal shot on an animal....
