Deer and Deer Hunting just posted this on there YouTube page. I thought I would share this as a refresher for some and a learning experience for others. He doesn't bring up a good point about the blood loss which I thought was pretty fascinating. Enjoy and please add anything you may find useful for other hunters as well that may help them in finding that perfect spot to aim for.

Correction to my post, he "DOES" bring up a good point about the blood loss. I never really realized how much a deer would really need to loose until he made a reference to a water bottle. That's a lot of freaking blood.

Seems most of the blood would be internal vs external....
Very true. And with him tipping the water bottle like that he kind of simulated a higher hit shot with the blood sloshing around and spilling out. If it was a large cut in the lungs, or a lower shot where blood would flow out more easily it would be totally different blood trail.
