Because I believe "shock" is highly overrated when it comes to deer hunting. I believe that lack of blood to vital organs is responsible for a much greater number of deer kills than "shock" is, and that a clean wound channel with an exit hole the size of my fist will provide a much easier tracking job than just an entry hole the size of a pencil, at best. Deer DO run off a lot of the time, doesn't matter what you shoot them with or where you shoot them, unless you hit the central nervous system (brain/spine), or bust the front shoulder, in which case I've seen them bulldoze off for 50-75 yards or so. They generally die from lack of blood to vital organs.
