You are seeing the various phases of loss of consciousness. What you are seeing here is lack of coordination and confusion and a common (but not always present) excitatory phase due to blood loss. This also happens with anesthesia. I'm a veterinarian btw. Edit- to further explain . THIS is the reality of this (death) by non "massive" exsanguination. You just don't normally witness it fully. This is what severe acute/ fatal looked like. It can be disturbing to witness if not fully understand what is going on. Is it painful? "Probably" not as much as one would imagine as long as this quick and mind is perturbed by blood loss quickly. That is why it is SO important to take as clean, quick, and ethical shots as possible. We owe it to these animals. And yes I'm a bow hunter as well.
Dude, this video is every bowhunters dream. Congratulations on your middle Tennessee giant. I hope to watch many more videos in the future from Whitetail Hungry. May many more Huge whitetail bucks fall to your draw. Keep the perfect videos coming too. Subscribed. Blessings for another Bloody Fall..
Excellent shot. But it's amazing how much he kept fighting!!!. That was one Strong Buck!!!. He kept moving and running until he ran out of blood. One Tough ass Buck. And congratulations 😊
Awesome buck, Big body buck.. Had a similar experience to yours with a nice 8 i got about 10 years ago. Big bucks are tough. What else is there to say. Awesome brother ✊
That was insane fortage I recently watched a biologist Point out the different segments in the actual lungs In each causes varying amounts of blood boss In determines how quick the animal expires It also proves just how tough these mature bucks or any other mature wild animal can truly be Great hunt thank you for sharing congratulations on a beautiful buck 😊
It’s hysterical how many “experts” are on here and like to put in their 2 cents. Congrats on a stud of a deer, and 2 (what seemed to be) tough shots. 👍
That’s what the comments section is for. Maybe some people will be offended by this, but I think it could also help alot of young hunters. It is part of hunting but it happens. Learn from the experience and grow. Trump 2024!
@@davidperry5631I think his point is many people like to watch a video and either 1.) assert their opinion as fact when they don’t have half of the information and weren’t there in person 2.) assume the worst, and bash the hunter Good example- one comment said “Wish you’d gotten a follow up shot sooner rather than worrying about filming” What they don’t consider is that 1) this camera is attached to my bow so I’m actually not focused on filming but staying ready and looking for the first opportunity at a follow up shot and 2) there are 2 other deer inside of 25 yards outside the frame of the camera view staring right at me after the first shot so I couldn’t grab another arrow without spooking them all. I do agree completely agree that comments and videos like this should be used as learning opportunities for all of us. Experienced and green alike
That’s what I was expecting to happen when I saw the blood pouring out of the sweet spot. Then when he did the death plow, I thought he was done for again but he got up again. Incredible animals!
Yea. It amazes me how they can pinpoint sounds and literally end going right to the base of your tree. Not the first time I’ve seen that happen. One of the billion reasons I’m obsessed with these animals. They’re incredible
Congratulations on a STUD of a deer. Always tough to watch any deer die. But it is part of the archery game we all sign up for. We all want a clean and ethical shot every time but we are hunting live animals that are strong and unpredictable. Awesome footage! Keep up the great work. TY for sharing! Curt WhiteTAILS Deer Hunting 🦌
Thanks for the view and comment! Agree that there’s always a mix of emotions when it all finally happens but then not quite the way you hope. Glad you enjoyed it and appreciate the positive vibes. Best of luck to you this coming year and beyond
I don't think they feel much of anything when an arrow zips through. I believe they panic when the blood pressure starts dropping and they feel something they have never felt before and that spooks them. Great buck.
Yea I’ve heard of it before but never seen one do it myself. Everyone I’ve ever shot took off and then crashed. It was a pretty cool to experience. Thanks!
Awesome buck! A hard video to watch, but unlike others, I don't think it was a bad shot. Based on entrance and the angling forward exit wound it looked like a good ethical shot. I have seen deer expire quicker from worse shots. Not all deer react the same when hit by an arrow. Some years ago I doubled lunged a 7 point that ran 40 yards out of the brush, then 200 yards across a cut soy bean field, over railroad tracks, and expired 40 yards inside the next woodlot. When I dressed him out, both lungs had an X in them. Go figure.
35 years of bow hunting and it's still tough to watch em die. It's absolutely part of it and have had to do it quite a few time's. Always tough for me. Great buck and glad to see ya send a follow up
Its bittersweet for sure. A bit of sadness and a ton of respect as you see an old bruiser fighting for his last breaths along with excitement, gratitude, and relief that it all came together after so much time and effort went into the chase. I always try to remind myself that mother natures death for these animals is usually a lot more brutal and inhumane.
Had a similar experience this year with a rifle. Got my a buck during my first year 'tracking' and solo but with the lack of snow it was more like a casual forest meander. He stood up and started browsing at most 15 yards away. Hit him low single lung (thought it was heart from the blood trail but during processing I gain a new respect for the concussive power of the 30-06) and he barely flinched. Walked maybe 15 yards before bedding and I bumped him once with my rookie excitement. He only walked another 10 yards before bedding for the last time. It was also pretty hard for me to watch his final moments like that even though the time between the shot and him expiring was 2 minutes at most. Hard to tell, it feels like it was forever but was over so quick.
Congratulations on the buck. I agree with the other comments, that was a little hard to watch. That buck took a while to pass. You didn’t smoke or smash but you did get him. You hunt long enough you will know the difference. What it’s all about for me is a clean kill on a mature buck. It took me a long time to realize that and appreciate what it is all about. However congratulations on an awesome buck and a truly unique video.
That buck was done after the first arrow. He just didnt know it or want to believe it. There was blood spurting out in a stream after every heart beat on his right side. They dont always fall like sack of potatoes and dead. This one is one of the longer ones that Ive seen to take to die. Talk about a huge will to live.
Man you got lucky in nicking the liver on first shot because I really thought you guy shot him. But he’s down and that’s what counts, congratulations on a beautiful buck. TC, ✌️👍
Looked to me like it was too far back for double lung but clipped an artery or major vein. Don't like watching animals expire like that but sure do enjoy venison burger and sausage.
I think the initial shot was a touch back. Wasn’t a double lung shot by any means. Probably straight liver and maybe clipped a small piece of one lung. Glad you got another arrow in him. Hard to judge if you could have sooner or not. Hell of a buck. Congrats
Thanks man. Like I told others I think the shot looks back because the front leg is extending forward at the shot. I quartered this deer myself as I do every deer I harvest and I can assure you the first arrow got both lungs. Thanks for watching
Shot a nice 8 point this year. Got both lungs and top of heart. Could see the blood trail for over 50 yards from my stand on both sides of him. Still ran almost 300 yards. Had me second guessing my shot after the first 100 yards but luckily the rage made for easy tracking. Their will to live especially during the rut is unmatched. My nerves were shot for you just watching
Congrats on a nice buck! I’ve had similar experiences to you. I’ve also had them trot like 15 yards then get woozy and tip over. That’s what I was expecting this guy to do but no, he had other plans. Mature bucks never cease to amaze me
@whitetailhungry6899 same. It was my best buck to date with a now and I knew it was a money shot at 10 yards and he just kept running and I could tell he was in bad shape cause he was zig zagging confused as to where to go next. After seeing his lungs and heart idk how he ran anywhere
Great buck! Congrats. First shot looked a little too far back. Guessing Liver and one lung. He would have died from the first shot for sure but you did the right thing by putting another arrow in him. I was wondering why you didn't do that sooner. Where did the second arrow hit?
Believe it or not the deer had 3 holes in his lungs. If you go frame by frame on the 1st shot you’ll see the arrow kicked forward slightly from where you last see the fletching. 1st shot entry was mid way up the lung and on the outer edge. Exit was lower 1/3 of offside lung and outer edge bc the lung tapers down toward the front leg. 2nd shot entered high in the lung (exit lung from 1st shot) and exited out the diaphragm
Just curious, the first shot looked a little far back for lungs. Imagine how far he could run if hed have taken of, they are some tough critters. Congrats on a great buck
Thanks, I think was you see in the video is deflection because he was walking and maybe contact with a rib. Like the broad head entered forward of where you last see the nock. The entry hole was centered up and down and about 1.5” from the edge of the lung. Exit was low in the offside lung.
Man, thats a nice buck but it was hard to watch, i shot a doe pretty much the same way many years ago, it got to me so bad mantally that i didnt bow hunt the rest of the season because i felt so bad,the anti hunters try to make us hunters into cruel heartless murderers but from reading these comments it proves that we all as hunters have compassion for these beautiful animals that we are lucky enough to be able to hunt
Wow.....That old boy was tough...... Great shot and he just seemed to get mad and refused to go down.....If someone had shot him and it was a lesser placed arrow, there is no telling how far he might have traveled...... Great job from one TN hunter to another......
Spot on and I agree. I do however think I could have likely gotten the follow up shot off a little sooner but hindsight is always 20/20. Live, learn, and try not to make the same mistake twice. Thanks for watching!
The exit was right on the back edge of lung and low. Entry was perfect up and down and back 1/3 or so of lung. It looks a little back because his leg is extending forward at the shot. It was certainly a wild experience for me.
If it was Eastern cheatham county, is it good chance it's the same deer have pictures of him going back 2 2019 . If yes, would be glad to send them to you.
Obviously mortally shot. In my view that deer was blind going around and around due to blood loss. As hunters we do the best we can to make a clean quick kill, but this is hunting and it doesn’t happen as quick as we hope. Congrats on a nice buck
🎯 thanks man. yea I honestly think even without the second shot he probably would have only gone another 10 yards or so before going down. I just couldn’t stand to let it go on any longer.
Thanks for sharing, most are too afraid of pushback to post something like this, but it’s part of the game. I highly doubt he felt much…. He was delirious. Always crazy to see how tough a big mature Whitetail buck is. That’s a really nice buck as well!!!!!. Good deal putting a second shot in them. Always take a second shot if you can….. make holes!!! Can you tell us what you hit on the first shot?
Absolutely, I know the shot looks back but if you slow it down and go frame by frame which I am able to do on my editing software you can see the arrow kicks forward a bit right at impact. The entry was about midway up the lung and on the back edge of it, the exit was the bottom back 1/3 where the lungs diagonal down to the front leg ( about center of the lungs if you look at total lung length. Second arrow entered the same lung as the initial shot entry high in the lung and exited low out the diaphragm.
I suspect that your broadheads were NOT razor sharp. That 1st shot exited low and it probably missed any major arteries. That buck died from suffocation and not blood loss. No blood was exiting his mouth/nose area, further evidence of minimal bleeding in the lungs.
I wish I had taken picture when I cleaned him. This was not a gut shot. You are seeing the exit wound when the shot was slightly quartering to. The entry went right into the middle of the near side lung and this exit was right on the lower back end of the lung. The second shot entered high in the near side lung and exited in the liver.
It’s easy to sit here and armchair quarterback so I will start with a congrats on taking a great old deer. With that being said, your first shot is clearly low and back. You may have clipped the bottom of the offside lung but there is no way you got that front side lung. Arrow to expiration of a true double lung shot is 30 seconds or less, 75% of the time. The variable on that time line is the amount of ground covered, sometimes they go on a hard death run, but with 30 seconds they crash. Again, not trying to armchair QB but, you should have stuck him again a lot sooner. It could have reduced the cringe factor of the video. Congrats
Thanks for the congrats but I’d love to see where you got your statistics because like I mentioned in replies to other comments with similar thoughts, I quarter the deer I kill myself. When I cleaned and quartered this deer both lungs were hit with the first arrow. The entry was mid way up and back 1/3 on front lung and exit was bottom back corner of offside lung. Second arrow entered high and back in the exit lung from 1st shot and exited out the liver.
You definitely had time to put another arrow in him. And am I the only one noticing it looks like 2 of the sits you sat up on the wrong side of the tree. The ways you kept trying to maneuver around. Definitely didn't look comfortable.
Thanks for watching. Yes, i had time but what you can’t see in the video is that there was a 6 point and a doe within 30 yards of me and after the 1st shot they were both had me pegged. I didn’t think I could grab another arrow without spooking them all until he went thrashing through the brush. I then put another arrow in him the first chance I had. As for my setup, it only seems like the wrong side of the tree because the buck didn’t come through the strip of timber I was hunting which is why you see me filming the deer 100+ yards away rather than in bow range. Every time I made a move to where i last saw him, he and his doe shifted and did something different.
I wouldn’t call that smokin him or smashing him. I’d call that 2 bad shots & very hard to watch. As an archery hunter that’s what we try and avoid with shot placement.
Dude so happy for you, but the suspense should be your experience, not more ammo for the anti hunters. I get it that things don't always go right and somethings are out of our control but last thing we need right now is some idiot watching this and turning them away from our cause and beliefs. Would have been a better video if you showed up to the shot and the recovery
Why in God's name did you not put another arrow in him you had the perfect chance it was the ethical thing to do as a bowhunter instead you let him suffer all that time I don't understand.he came right under you almost .your bragging and I'm shaking my head brother
What you don’t see is there’s 2 other deer inside of 30 yards outside the frame of the video staring at me after the 1st shot. I wasn’t able to get another arrow without spooking all the deer until he started thrashing in the brush.
Appreciate the feedback. I’m working on getting an external lapel mic that I think will help. I’m fairly new to the filming game so always looking to improve
What kind of broadheads do you use sir? Im not a big fan of the rage. I did harvest a big 8 pt 3 years ago with a 3 bladed Rage. At 8 yards from the ground, i knocked him straight to the ground. I drew the bow while he was looking dead at me! He was in a rut craze and the deer lure had him goofy in the head. Nice buck Congratulations Sir!!
Congrats,but man this is what gives us as hunters a bad name.I know ya wanna leave this up.I would do a lot more editing to this a just tell the story.This was brutal!Ive been deer hunting 40yrs here in Tn.Ive only had that happen one time.Just a thought in re-editing this….
Thanks for the feedback and I’ll consider it. Honestly, I think most of what you see here is actually what happens the majority of the time when you shoot one and it runs off. We just don’t usually see it all unfold. I suspect 98% of people who watch this are hunters like you and I and I’m hoping others can learn the lesson I did which is no matter how good the first shot is, always be ready to get a quick follow up shot if you get the chance.

You are seeing the various phases of loss of consciousness.
What you are seeing here is lack of coordination and confusion and a common (but not always present) excitatory phase due to blood loss. This also happens with anesthesia.

It was super intense. A whirlwind of emotions. Middle Tennessee.

That's right experience.you still have some learning to do .but nice buck anyhow
Always more to learn!
Congrats man you smoked him. Is this Rutherford County?
Thanks man and no sir.
Tough ole boy. If he had been in a 40 acre field that woulda been a 500 yard track and you mighta lost him him in briars and wild roses.
Absolutely possible. This was actually right beside a 35 acre crp field so that was a real possibility here.
What county is this?
One of the Middle TN ones. 😉
Can I ask id this was killed in Davidson County TN? Had pics of a buck looking just like this 1 for years, but he was very random.
No. One of the bordering counties 😉
If it was Eastern cheatham county, is it good chance it's the same deer have pictures of him going back 2 2019 . If yes, would be glad to send them to you.

There a tuff breed those deer I took one doe this year in the brisket and she poured blood like a person doing a oil change she still ran 30 yards
Yes sir. Tough indeed
Tough old buck!
Nice buck don’t get much better than that.
Thanks man. Good luck this season!
Obviously mortally shot. In my view that deer was blind going around and around due to blood loss. As hunters we do the best we can to make a clean quick kill, but this is hunting and it doesn’t happen as quick as we hope. Congrats on a nice buck
🎯 thanks man. yea I honestly think even without the second shot he probably would have only gone another 10 yards or so before going down. I just couldn’t stand to let it go on any longer.
Thanks for sharing, most are too afraid of pushback to post something like this, but it’s part of the game. I highly doubt he felt much…. He was delirious. Always crazy to see how tough a big mature Whitetail buck is. That’s a really nice buck as well!!!!!. Good deal putting a second shot in them. Always take a second shot if you can….. make holes!!!
Can you tell us what you hit on the first shot?
Absolutely, I know the shot looks back but if you slow it down and go frame by frame which I am able to do on my editing software you can see the arrow kicks forward a bit right at impact.
The entry was about midway up the lung and on the back edge of it, the exit was the bottom back 1/3 where the lungs diagonal down to the front leg ( about center of the lungs if you look at total lung length.
Second arrow entered the same lung as the initial shot entry high in the lung and exited low out the diaphragm.
Monster man.
Thanks
I suspect that your broadheads were NOT razor sharp. That 1st shot exited low and it probably missed any major arteries. That buck died from suffocation and not blood loss. No blood was exiting his mouth/nose area, further evidence of minimal bleeding in the lungs.
Trying to learn here:
What exactly does razor sharp broadheads have to do with clipping a major artery vs just puncturing the lung?
Just a case of A BAD SHOT (GUT SHOT) & who knows on the second shot
I wish I had taken picture when I cleaned him. This was not a gut shot. You are seeing the exit wound when the shot was slightly quartering to. The entry went right into the middle of the near side lung and this exit was right on the lower back end of the lung. The second shot entered high in the near side lung and exited in the liver.
Nice…
Thanks man!
Bad hit suffered.. stud nice
Looks like a Williamson county buck
Maybe… Maybe not.. 😂
@@whitetailhungry6899 there’s some good bucks out that way, shot a 140” 8 pointer on Halloween this year. Great buck, congrats!
@@jacksoncunningham5378congrats man! I’ve always loved that time of the year right around Halloween
that was disturbing.
It’s easy to sit here and armchair quarterback so I will start with a congrats on taking a great old deer. With that being said, your first shot is clearly low and back. You may have clipped the bottom of the offside lung but there is no way you got that front side lung. Arrow to expiration of a true double lung shot is 30 seconds or less, 75% of the time. The variable on that time line is the amount of ground covered, sometimes they go on a hard death run, but with 30 seconds they crash. Again, not trying to armchair QB but, you should have stuck him again a lot sooner. It could have reduced the cringe factor of the video. Congrats
Thanks for the congrats but I’d love to see where you got your statistics because like I mentioned in replies to other comments with similar thoughts, I quarter the deer I kill myself. When I cleaned and quartered this deer both lungs were hit with the first arrow. The entry was mid way up and back 1/3 on front lung and exit was bottom back corner of offside lung.
Second arrow entered high and back in the exit lung from 1st shot and exited out the liver.
I double lunged one that went about 400 yards up and down some really steep hills and a couple were damn near straight up
I am new to hunting and I can't find good places. If you can help me, I will appreciate it, thank you.
Poisoned arrow if u ask me
What?? Is that actually still a thing? Didn’t they ban those like 30 years ago in all states?
You definitely had time to put another arrow in him. And am I the only one noticing it looks like 2 of the sits you sat up on the wrong side of the tree. The ways you kept trying to maneuver around. Definitely didn't look comfortable.
Thanks for watching. Yes, i had time but what you can’t see in the video is that there was a 6 point and a doe within 30 yards of me and after the 1st shot they were both had me pegged. I didn’t think I could grab another arrow without spooking them all until he went thrashing through the brush. I then put another arrow in him the first chance I had.
As for my setup, it only seems like the wrong side of the tree because the buck didn’t come through the strip of timber I was hunting which is why you see me filming the deer 100+ yards away rather than in bow range.
Every time I made a move to where i last saw him, he and his doe shifted and did something different.
I feel bad for him whT w😊😊zy to go true big en.
I wouldn’t call that smokin him or smashing him. I’d call that 2 bad shots & very hard to watch. As an archery hunter that’s what we try and avoid with shot placement.
Dude so happy for you, but the suspense should be your experience, not more ammo for the anti hunters. I get it that things don't always go right and somethings are out of our control but last thing we need right now is some idiot watching this and turning them away from our cause and beliefs. Would have been a better video if you showed up to the shot and the recovery
Why in God's name did you not put another arrow in him you had the perfect chance it was the ethical thing to do as a bowhunter instead you let him suffer all that time I don't understand.he came right under you almost .your bragging and I'm shaking my head brother
What you don’t see is there’s 2 other deer inside of 30 yards outside the frame of the video staring at me after the 1st shot. I wasn’t able to get another arrow without spooking all the deer until he started thrashing in the brush.
you have to talk louder or don't talk at all!!!!
Appreciate the feedback. I’m working on getting an external lapel mic that I think will help. I’m fairly new to the filming game so always looking to improve
What kind of broadheads do you use sir? Im not a big fan of the rage. I did harvest a big 8 pt 3 years ago with a 3 bladed Rage. At 8 yards from the ground, i knocked him straight to the ground. I drew the bow while he was looking dead at me! He was in a rut craze and the deer lure had him goofy in the head. Nice buck Congratulations Sir!!
Thank you sir! QAD Exodus 125gr
Congrats,but man this is what gives us as hunters a bad name.I know ya wanna leave this up.I would do a lot more editing to this a just tell the story.This was brutal!Ive been deer hunting 40yrs here in Tn.Ive only had that happen one time.Just a thought in re-editing this….
Thanks for the feedback and I’ll consider it. Honestly, I think most of what you see here is actually what happens the majority of the time when you shoot one and it runs off. We just don’t usually see it all unfold.
I suspect 98% of people who watch this are hunters like you and I and I’m hoping others can learn the lesson I did which is no matter how good the first shot is, always be ready to get a quick follow up shot if you get the chance.
Totally agree .
@@whitetailhungry6899 Respect for realizing after the fact what you could have done differently to honor such an old warrior.
@@Diffidentonethanks man. Always more to learn and ways to improve. One of the things I like best about filming my hunts
