Archery season starts here in about a month, and I'm new to it. Killed plenty of deer with firearms in the past though. Here's the question: Assuming I put a good shot with a broadhead into the lung(s) of a deer (classic broadside shot, just behind the shoulder crease), and everything from my end went right- how far could I expect that deer to run before it expires? With my rifles, I never had one go more than 100 yards, usually a lot less, and I wait 20 minutes before I look for them unless its a DRT situation. I have a PSE fang that I have got pretty good with (on targets) that goes about 350 FPS, and I'm using Muzzy trocar 100 grain 3 blade broadheads, if that makes any difference. Max range about 25 yards, due to both skill and the jungle like conditions here where I'll be hunting.
