I shot a 3x3 whitetail  during modern and found a perfectly healed broadhead in the back straps .

we were boning out a buddies deer this year that had a broadhead all healed up in the backstrap too, no arrow shaft, looks like it unscrewed itself and it healed around the broadhead..

My buddy has a pretty cool one like that but it's the front shoulder off "I think" a 5 point bull. It's amazing what animals can take and live threw.

Lookes like, yet another case of trying ot shoot too far.  An arrow is not designed to be shot 100 yrds and kill a wild animal the size of an Elk or deer.  Anything past 50 should be with an MF.  :dunno:

Broadhead in bone!
« Reply #22 on: February 20, 2013, 09:57:05 AM »
I live in island county and it is pretty common to find buckshot in our deer. In fact I have found some in almost every one I've butchered.

Last year a guy I know shot a young buck that had a pretty bad limp on one of his front legs when we found him I noticed that there was a spur of bone sticking out of that leg. His leg had healed with 1/2-1" of bone sticking out. It was an old injury, bone and skin completely healed, just healed wrong.

Man you must work for csi! How can you tell that from some simple photos!? I can tell from your avitar pic that that hog was shot at 1126 yards using a 300 win mag on the California coast. You were wearing Bermuda shorts, with a wife beater white tank on, and drinking. The shot was off hand and your blind in your right eye, but yet your shooting right handed!

Please keep your self imposed stupid, and idiotic comments to yourself wildsau until you know the facts.

Ps...I am sure you have NEVER made a bad shot or a bad hunting decision.
If we were supposed to be vegetarian God would have made broccoli more fun to shoot!
"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?

I don't know what got stuck in your Gludious-Maximus sideways, but you might want to have that taken care of.

I was making an observation and NOT stating a fact.  I read about bow shots out 100+ yards and ask myself, "Why shoot so far.?  Isn't the object to get as close as you can to ensure a good shot?"  If the shots were taken close enough, the arrows may have gone completly through the animal.  Why was this your shot?

Have I  ever made a bad shot?  Once, many years ago and it was because I pushed the shot - using MF and a powerful scope at the time.

I agree a bad shot can be made, once in a while, but if the shooter takes the time to ensure that they are as close as, physically, possible and ensure all is as it should be for a good shot, the chances of, needlessly, causing an animal to suffer are, greatly, reduced.

Also, it was my understanding that EVERYONE was entiteled to their own opinion, on here, regardless of what others think or feel.  Getting derogetory and instulting is NOT the idea of this site.

For you 'norrow minded' information, I don't use a 300, hunt in California or shoot more than 50 yars, with MF, or 30 yards Archery.  I don't like the noise, to walk any farther to retrieve my game than I have to, or places that are too warm.

Just for the record, I din't shoot THAT boar.  The last one I shot was in Germany and only weight in at 220lbs.

As for who I work for, all YOU need to know is I put in my time and get paid for it.  'Nuf said.  :IBCOOL:

I found an elk carcass while elk hunting several years ago that had a broadhead embedded in a clavicle.

It had a lump of stuff (solid - calcium???) growing around it.   
Sure it was an elk carcass?  Only big critters equipped with clavicles walking around our woods are human, and (maybe) Sasquatch.  Just giving you a hard time - maybe a scapula?
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Here's one from a cow I shot several years ago. I still don't know how it got in there that way.
