Well, that stinks for the kid. I hit a 200lb plus 6 pt once from about 65-75 yds with a 308. Chunks of meat at the hit site. Hair everywhere. Deer ended up being about 60 yds away just hanging out when I got Down 30 min later. Too soon I know but I was too excited. He ran of course. Small blood pool where he stood for half an hour. Not a spot after that. He ran like fire to a cutover never to be seen again. Went back to see that my bullet had hit a small branch on a bush. Pretty sure I took a chunk of his brisket off.
