He was actually quartering hard toward me. The arrow entered his right side, just behind the shoulder blade. There's even a slight nick in the shoulder blade from the broadhead. Even though he's an older deer, he has been very good eatn'. Some of the most tender tenderloins I have ever had and that includes the ranch raise type. He was a very health deer. He had over an inch of fat on his belly. There was some marbling in the round steak meat section which I've never seen in a deer before.
