I saw three deer drop on the spot this year with three different broadheads. Only one was a spine shot, it angled upwards, one was right behind the shoulder through ribs and the last one went through ribs at right angle and stopped behind other shoulder, had to skin deer to get the head. Nice shot, good kill.
Is the entry hole about the same size as the exit ? I only c people showing the exit hole on their videos, been thinking about getting me a pack to hunt with
It's not the broadhead nor the spine. The arrow hit her on the shoulder. But, she start falling before the arrow hit her. She was already spooked before the shot, looking at the direction of the camera. Almost reminds me of fainting goats, that fall down when they are scared. Regardless; nice doe, nice shot, nice video...
it dropped in its place because it hit it in the spine...above the shoulder...right behind her neck.
They are great broadheads but that isn't what dropped the deer...notice your lack of penetration, it was the spine being broken that caused her to drop in place.
what is deceiving about this vid is that the first 1/3 of the arrow went on thru the deer. The vid looks like it stops right away but as the deer was moving it snapped the arrow and stopped 2/3 of the shaft from going anywhere...the broadhead exited high in the neck...it struck the shoulder blade and veered up...I wouldn't use a mechanical for elk but sure would on deer...jmho
what is probably the best weight of mechanical broadhead for a 60-80lb bow? I have a bow that can be tuned from 60 to 80lbs and would like to go hunting with it, but dont know which broadhead to use.
@codygrant94tracker I agree!!!!! Took two does in the neck this year. Not where I wanted to place the arrow, it was just where it ended up. They dropped right there DRT!
OK, not a perfect "double lung" like the perfect experts on the hunting channel, but as a bowhunter who shoots an elk and about 3 deer a year, that wasnt a bad shot. Even if she wouldnt have dropped like she was hit with a truck, she would have been recovered without much problems. Good job seekbowhunter

@seekbowhunter why wouldnt u use a mech. for elk ? j/w... the 2 blade rage worked good on my elk from last year and ill probly use them this year as well
@seekbowhunter i would say something was mechanically messed on the broad head you were shooting, i myself do not hunt with bow yet but my brother and rest of my familly do and my brother has not had any issues with his grim reapers, they are known for the ability to punch through both shoulder bones, kind of odd that yours stopped
But correct me if I´m wrong here!! Say a clip where they shot GR broadhead in ballistics gel with 2 shoulderbones and it penetrated both, this doesnt seem to penetrate much further in then just barely to hit the vitals. No offense to you, just wonder why..
i' d say harvesting deer at 45 57 66 72 and 78 yds makes me an expert especially since i had a regular 75lb pse marauder with aluminum arrows so if you want you can call me rambo or the bow sniper works well too. sleep well
would it be ok to shoot grim reaper expandables in my youth bow..50 lb. draw...i killed a small seven with thunder heads from 7 yards on the ground(exciting) and it dropped it in it`s tracks,but would the expandables have ennough kinetic energy to deploy the blades every time...EVERY time
@seekbowhunter ,that`s what i figured...what broad head do recommend? i used thunder heads(85 grain) at the beggining of the season...but now im usin the cheap walmart broadheads...lol..gonna use them on turkey
@seekbowhunter, alright,sounds good..im ready for the next season..i have the perfect stand,right at the edge of the woods with a natural flooded marsh/small pond and im gonna set out some trophy rock and plant clover around it.. right now im workin on my fly fishn casting skills..lol, although i am pretty dang good at makin my own flys
no way ... they only look nice and shinny ...the only mechanical i use is the 100 gr grimreaper razortip.... and i also like magnus buzzcut because of their penetration and lifetime guaranty...
@MainTightSqueeze ....yup.... i love the magnus stinger buzzcuts 2 blade 100 gr.... for hogs ...i havnt gotten the chance to hunt elk, but im sure 2 blades buzzcuts would be the way to go...and for deer sized game i just use mechanicals like the 100 gr grim reaper.... they make a big hole lol...but i like the penetration of the magnus on hogs ....
Not the ideal spot to hit! But when the deer is staring at you the reaction time to the bowissomuch quicker it can turn it into a real crapshoot... Grim Reaper!
actually the arrow broke on impact and the broadhead exited on the other side....it hit the shoulder and veered up hit the spine and came out....it doesn't look like it in the vid but that is actually what happened.
hit that main nerve running down the body not a spine shot i wouldnt be proud of the shot but nice harvest

Looked at 30 sec. Yes, neck shot which equals spine shot. The spine is not on the top edge under the fur. It's a few inches down.

That was a lucky shot. Is that really where you were aiming? Never seen the kill zone in front of the shoulder before.
