as some of you know i shot a buck on october 19th and i thought i made a perfect hit and we were finding lung blood and we tracked him for 345 yards and then the blood stopped

well this buck has a rack that looks exactly like the one i shot!!

now look at his shoulder......see anything??

it looks like a scar to me

Dont know why you posted this twice really. Honestly if it is the same deer, I dont think you hit any lung. If you hit lung on the deer you shot it is dead somewhere. From your other posts, I think if I was you, I would have to question the possibility that this is a different deer that has a scar from something else, hung in a fence, shot by someone else with a poor shot, etc., and your deer is out there somewhere un recovered.

I would agree that I don't think that spot would be a lung shot. It looks way too low and then you take into account that you probably were up in the air and there isn't any way that hit lung. Personally I'd shoot him again if given the chance b/c your right his rack will not by good next year. His right side will be very weak

I always heard that if it`s a hind leg it will affect a deers antlers.. The deer in this pic lost his left back leg from the knee down, it stunted the right side of his rack.. I shot this buck a couple of years ago... i personally wouldn`t worry about your shot affecting his antlers unless you did wing him in a leg..The spot you circled doesn`t look like a leg wound.. Just my 2 cents.
