OUCH!!! Just curious, is that a cross-bow arrow? Looks too small for a regular arrow...

Sad thing is there are *censored*es on here that think that shot is good.    Does look short, but with some of the overdraws these days :dunno:

I was thinking that initially but wasn't sure if they would have enough momentum to get that much penetration on a head shot... stupid shot regardless

Looks like a crossbow bolt. 

The deer looks fine and healthy.  Better off than a shot from a rifle to the leg leaving it limping for life.

hey, where's Professor Chaos? Anyone seen him?

I hate crap like that.  Some *censored* shoots the thing in the head, somebody gets a picture of it, sends it around...well, it just makes everyone that's an archery hunter look like an idiot.  That's too bad.

Yep, hate to see that kind of thing.  Hope that it was just something that went wrong, an errant arrow, or a hit twig or something that sent an arrow into an unintended area.  It happens, it shouldn't, but it does happen.  I am hopeful that it wasn't an intentionally aimed arrow.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

Reminds me of a moose hunting show I saw earlier this week.  The guy shot at a bull and the arrow deflected off some grass and bounced up and stuck in the base of the antlers.
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

Maybe its just me and the angles playing tricks, but the arrow is moved in the 3rd pick. The shaft is longer on the exit side in the 1st pic. Maybe a photoshop job? hhmm?? :rolleyes:

I posted this same pic here a few months back..think it was JackofAllTrades or robescc that determined it was a Crossbow bolt. I deleted the Pic after a general concensus that it should come down before all the arong (antis) people saw it...

No such thing as a crossbow ARROW.  They are BOLTS.  Can't judge because there is no story but this is pretty lame.

Antlerking and I saw a buck last spring while shed hunting with a carbon arrow sticking straight out of the back of his head.   :bash: Seemed to be doing OK when we saw him, gave me a headache just looking at him. 
I've hunted almost everyday of my life, the rest have been wasted.
