Anyone ever seen that happen?
Just skinned my KY buck..and I didn't miss opening morning.
Long story but we were confused about the wounds as all we could find on the hanging deer was a low wound on the entrance side and never could locate the entrance even though we could see where it was by looking in the rib cage and they didn't line up.
Anyways, I hit this deer low but not low enough that I would expect to not kill it. The bullet seemed to deflect or atleast follow the sternum and come out lower on the other side. Unbelievable. I did check for blood after my supposed miss, found the tree it hit behind him and never found a drop. I watched him follow does off up the hill and away like he wasn't hurt.
He came in the next morning like all was good in the world but didn't take that shot as well.
