Likely hung in a fence with both back legs, and stripped the hooves off when he pulled free.
Doesn't look fun.

Yes they are, why would someone kill a deer that's been through what that deer has? I've seen a nice 8 pt multiple times that was messed up really bad opening weekend. He's completely healed up and not even limping anymore.

He's completely healed up and not even limping anymore. Some Turdy-Turdy yahoos adjoining our line shot a doe several years ago. Shot a back leg off. She ‘migrated’ from the backside to habitating up here around the houses. I don’t shoot does anymore and I don’t shoot ‘yard deer’ We have about a 1 acre strip of oaks and honeysuckle along the spring branch here near our well house. She stayed in there for 3 years off and on. And drop twins at least 2 years in a row. She seemed to thrive.

My son shot a deer low through the brisket and we didn't find the deer . Late season another hunter shot the same deer .
The bullet passed through and the wound was scabbed over and starting to heal .

I’ve killed a buck with a .50 cal ball buried in his back straps.
All that mess was festered and yellow fluid all over the deer.
I tossed the whole critter in a ditch

OMG that's crazy. I guess they don't think about it, "Oh schit, that's gunna leave a mark. Poor me, boohoo, I'm gunna lay down and die. " They just keep on eating, hiding, and living until they can't.

Got a deer that had a broad head buried in its backstrap. Totally healed over and the broad head was encapsulated. No infection or nothing.

A doe will usually raise her fawns next to the house. I guess I've lost my pictures of 2 fawns on the outside of the fence and 3 dogs on the inside looking at one another.

They are tough. Buddy shot a buck about 2 or 3 years ago, and was cleaning the head to do a European mount. Found a broadhead in the sinus areas of the head completely healed over. Could not tell anything from the outside.
......the occasional hunter wielding a hopelessly inaccurate rifle, living by the fantastical rule that this cartridge can deliver the goods, regardless of shot placement or rifle accuracy. The correct term for this is minute of ego.

Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
Ain’t easy havin pals.
