Arrowed the buck after 2 years can't find him

[buckhound]

i would keep looking start making circles  and if you can bring in a tracking dog  do it.. how much penetration do you think you  got ?     good  luck!!

[Matty]

That sucks man. Real nice deer. If you don't recover him, hopefully he lives for round 2.

Apparently they do that when they leave their first aid kits in their bedding area.

 

What the hell is wrong with you people?!!!   They pull their hair out so the band aid sticks!     Idiots

I shot a buck at less than 20 yards with my crossbow last year,,,,,,stuck right in the shoulder. Ran off, no blood. So does not always break through, regardless of distance.

Could someone explain the pulling hair out to plug himself to me ???

Don't even question it because you and I know better.

He is dead. Keep looking.

Deer don’t plug themselves lol. If he was hit in the shoulder with a bow, then good chance he is still out there walking around.

don't want to hi jack but in my experience only the knuckle of the shoulder should stop am arrow. The scalpula is easily blown through. The question is how much penetration did hits arrow get. Less than 2 inches would indicate the heavy bone. Good luck n don't give up

That knuckle is a bastard. No arrow and head combination that I am aware of can penetrate it when it is hit directly......

I have split the upper bones on both legs but the knuckle has stopped a few opposite shoulder exits and believed to have cost me a deer or 2 over the years. I shoot a 340 arrow at 520 total weight with cut on contact g5s. This is what occurs on most bone

If you hit the knuckle of the shoulder there are no vitals behind it.

That extend way far forward.

Rememeber if it's in the vitals you only need a few inches. But I've had it where the arrow goes in bounces off the opposite rib cage and falls out. that's only 6"-8" on a good size deer.

 

He's doing comercials right now, "hairplug for deer, im not only the founder but also a client."

what knuckle are you talking about ? there isn't one in the shoulder

[mikejd]

what knuckle are you talking about ? there isn't one in the shoulder

What???  How to you move the shoulder with no knuckle?

[Rusty]

They are referring to the joint between the scapula and the femur.  It you hit that you are too far forward to hit vitals unless the deer is angled towards you.
