so i'm eating supper last night

A cow elk my friend got five years ago at least had a broadhead stuck in the shoulder blade or leg...... shaft was broke off and a big gob of cartilage had formed around the head. They sure have a will to live.

Never seen anything like that before and hope not to for that matter. I bet your glad you aren't one who "inhales" their food.
 
I've never shot anything that had someone else's lead in it (that I found), but my buddy got a buck a year or two ago with a .44 slug in its thigh :eek:
 
I shot a buck in '05 (I believe) that had a broadhead and part of the arrow stuck in the ribs. It also had a bullet wound near the lungs. Either it came through a hellish fight in between some cowboys and indians or it didn't learn from the first time it smelt a human. Both wounds were completely healed over. I should have taken pictures but you know how it is when you're skinning and butchering.
 
noel - normally i am one that inhales my food.

gatehouse - i will try once get the camera back from the mother-in-law. i guess it is from a 243 and it is only the jacket, the lead core is gone completely.

btw, this was not a big deer, didn't even go 100lbs on the hook.
 
I enjoy this discussion about bullet weight retention, calibre etc but the real story here is why is that roast well done?

To quote the Avion guy..."There's comedy...and then there is tragedy"

accidents happen, the difference between rare and well done is probably 15 minutes.
