Double lung them and you are out of the void! Nice video to show the lung expansion!

some guys need this played on a loop 365 days
3 years ago I would have agreed with this video, and in aways I still do. However a deer can be shot high and live.
2 years ago I started the season out killing a doe 2nd week of the season, no visible problems with her. I start to cut her up and find a mass (growth) what ever you want to call it just under her spine, (if you drew a line up from the heart it was right above it). I cut it out to find the shaft of a arrow, it had broken off and had become part of her body.
Like I said it was just under the spine, actually the shaft was touching the bone. She would have had to have been shot at least the winter before but judging by the growth that had grown around it and no skin damage I would say she had been shot at least a full year before.

That's true. People don't realize just how low the spine actually is, they shoot over it and think that they shot under it.

That may be true as far as the lungs sticking through the ribs with the muscle cut out. In a living body the lungs fill the entire cavity and don't deflate, the expansion and contraction of the rib cage and diaphragm is what lets air in and out as the lungs are always pressing tight against the chest cavity.

:iagree:
Last deer season I was near the Sussex airport and a nice rack back ran in front of me. I was driving down the road. The buck had an arrow stuck 1/2 way through, The deer ran good, like it wasn't even hit. The arrow was in the so called "no mans zone". Dead center of deer, above lungs below spine.
Bow season closed two days before, no fresh blood on the deer either.
