This one was interesting.....didn't have the best shot.....although he was close he was on the move. After having it skinned......looking at the body and the hide couldn't find the entry hole. The bullet exited just below the shoulder on the opposite side and took out the knuckle below the shoulder. He ran 30 yards and died instantly. The taxidermist said maybe I hit an artery that runs near the shoulder. There was no damage to the vitals.....just a lot of blood inside.
Interesting that I couldn't locate the entry hole......anyone ever had this happen.....or she'd some light on this?
Well congrats! You got him anyway.
Sometimes entry holes take a bit of looking to find, but obviously its there somewhere. And yep, there is normally no blood inside the cavity so full of it means something was clipped! Which is good.
I love the part about died instantly but ran 30 yards. LOL.
Congrats again, well done!
