I agree bleudreaux but thankfully I have no comparison with my deer data against a person. Also there is nothing scientific with my data it's just what I have noticed. II just find it odd that the difference in performance seems noticeable to me on deer when I read frequently that the cartridges are basically a wash between the three.
In my expereince when a deer or hog is shot with a 9mm there is little to no visual indication of a hit. I normally get enough of a visual indication when using a 45 to know exactly where the bullet hit. Where the bullet hits pushes in with the larger caliber and bullets. To me this is a definate advantage to know exactly what is happening in real time.
