This was a first for me, never had a buck that had been shot on cam before. I believe I saw this deer arrow free the day prior.
Kinda shocked at the lack of penetration."Tis but a flesh wound.."
Pretty cool in bad sorta way.

Probably a Rage.
Looks like it hit bone. Like the shoulder ball and socket joint. Could also be the spine but didn't cause enough trauma to paralyze the deer. Most fixed blades out of a modern compound can bust through the scapula. Hopefully the arrow shaft breaks off and it can start healing.[/QUOTE

unless Joe shoots them lol.Hail Mary or lower poundage bow like a youth or female compound. Neck shots are low percentage with a bow. Lots of meat. Otherwise you have windpipe, spine (burried deep), or an artery. All pretty well protected.
