A doe I shot this year was a bit of a fluke, in that I hit her in the onside lungs at 100yds with a 7mm-08 shooting a 145gr softpoint and it exited in the middle of the offside shoulder, but I found only one speck of blood. I saw just a tiny little glint of blood in my flashlight and picked up the trail. No other blood, but she was lying there, stone dead, about 10yds into the brush. No arguments here, but I was surprised there wasn't more leakage. Odd stuff just happens sometimes, when it comes to blood trails, and you have to look at the overall picture, the sample size, and the average results.
