Looks like someone was focused on the antlers when they took a poor shot. Our rifle season is after bow season and I’ve seen several deer with an arrow sticking out of their haunches. Sad to see an animal suffer....I’d much prefer democrats suffer rather than animals.

Yet we'lll blame the bows all day long on this, never mind how many are shot and wounded with guns... but you can't see the "bullet" in them or through them.
We seemingly will never be able to be on the same page anymore

Thats about as bad as seeing a deer without a nose or lower jaw caused by a "head" shooter.
Theres a good chance the buck above was shot by a jack light poacher trying to be quite about his business and wanting the deer down right there.
Unreal.

I saw a big doe a few weeks ago that appeared to have been shot a bit high and a bit far back with a rifle. I was looking her over with binoculars and she had a big hunk out of her there that appeared to be healing. Her ribs were showing but otherwise she appeared to be doing well and getting around fine with another doe. We all looked at each other for a bit before they flagged off. If I hadn’t had the binocs, I would have never known anything was wrong with her. I expect that she will be fine.

Whenever I have dug into a deer's innards, the small voice in the back of my head wonders about old broadheads that may lurk within.

If these were in a relatively small area, then it's a bit strange.

I ve seen thru as couple deer that were hit poorly with a rifle. I have not seen or encountered any with arrows in them. One doe had a 2 inch hole below the spine and above the lungs but she was still motivating. Ed k

A bad shot is a bad shot and a wounded animal is a wounded animal. I've seen it plenty around here on the fire. Archery haters. I"m with you though, I totally hate to see ANY wound. But we tend to pile in on head shooters and archers for some reason. Truth be told plenty are wounded in other ways and or lost. All of its a shame. Which should all remind us a passed shot even on the trophy of a lifetime, is much better than a boogered up shot.

Years ago before the rifle season I was scouting for deer and came across a small group of deer and in that group was a small buck with an arrow through his neck, look like that old Steve Martin act where he had an arrow through his head.
I had my rifle with me and my first thought was to put him out of his misery, but after watching him for a bit he didn't seem miserable at all , he seemed to be going on as nothing was wrong.
It would have been illegal for me to drop him and considering his condition I let him go.

I don't have a beef with bow hunters but they kinda have a beef with me because I won't let them hunt my land until after rifle season. My beef with is with fish and game for giving bow hunters such a big advantage. Let the bow guys hunt with the rest of us and just have one deer season regardless of weapon.

Rost, I think most of the contention up here is not what a particular group uses but rather....when? Up here it generally centers on the prime times and the allocation of a particular resource, equitable distribution. I’m sure that every region has its own unique issues and gripes and it’s always interesting for me to hear about them. You and I are in complete agreement about wounding. There’s a lot of lazy hunters that are poor shots and the tool they use is immaterial. I don’t think that the animal cares what shot it. In any case and as usual I find myself in agreement with you and hope all is well in your area.....I hope your call volume decreases and above all I hope you stay safe out there. 👍
