Shoulder blade hit- thoughts?

[Farm boy]

WELL WELL WELL…. Someone showed up on camera tonight!!!! 2 weeks MIA. 10 guys grid searching. NOTHING. Tonight- BAM! Walked out right before dark in his core area. Picture is a partial of his head & rack but 1000000% it’s him. He’s back!!!! I was convinced he was dead to be Honest. My other take “they go MIA, recover & show back up” ended up being right.
I could not see the shoulder in the photo. TOMORROW the wind is right …. As I’ve been goofing off & just doing run/relaxing “let’s watch stuff hunts” - time to get back into the chase!! These dudes just never quit surprising me!!!!

These older bucks r truly amazing.
TUFFNESS beyound words. Survival.

This buck in Minnesota was shot with a slug in the neck and was chasing does a week later, and his brother got him on the same property (Note the hole)! How does he survive that ??

Ugh. Had a shoulder/leg hit last night on one of our bigger bucks. 6” of arrow broke off. Prob should have brought dog in before grid searching.

I hit a buck few years back while bow hunting.
Ended up hitting high in the cavity just below the spine.
I watch the buck turn and pull my arrow out of himself with broadhead still in him.
Put the word out,
2 years later neighbor 3 miles away calls me.
I bring my arrow that the buck pulled out perfect match to what was inside.
Once again TUFF animals.

We've had one of our collared bucks total two vehicles, a Tesla and a Nissan Xterra. Most of our deer have leg injuries from getting hit by cars but only 4 deer total have been killed out of around 175 captures from vehicles. Tough critters for sure!

So the broadhead was in the buck and healed over?

Yes, with about 3" of the shaft.
It was found while the guy was cutting up the deer.
Both sides of his antlers grew funky for 2 years.
