While I was removing the front shoulder off a 200+ lb buck yesterday I seen what looked like a stick coming out of the rib cage. Further inspection it was a graphite shaft. I had to reach inside the rib cage to pull it threw. This was a very old wound. There was lung tissue growing around the broadhead, actually growing through the webbing of the blades. It took me a few minutes to cut away all the scarred tissue. In the first pic you can see the clean arrow hole that is healed up a inch above the bullet hole.  Before I cut away tissue.  After  |

I harvested a buck several years ago and while cleaning it..found a broadhead stuck in it’s backbone. It had been there awhile as bone had started to form around it. Tough animals!!

And that is why I love P.E.T.A. so much, they think that just because they are defenseless animals we shouldn't hunt them. First off that is why they call it hunting, not killing. They have so many advantages over us that some people just think that we walk out in the woods with our shorts on start killing. Hardly, they don't see the hours upon hours of sitting in the bitter cold with the hopes that you will cross path's with one.
Like to see them try to do it, definitely takes a special kind of stupid to be on their side and a special kind of breed to be on ours.

After Not so much of a "Muzzy Moment" for the archer on that one. Seems kike he would have got him just an unch higher than your shot. One tough son of a buck! |

Is a deer someone brought in for processing. This was a through the shoulder blade shot. Notice a part of the esophagus that I cut off the broadhead in last picture.
