I grew up in Oklahoma and am lucky enough to be on a lease with some of my buddies from college. The lease is about 2 hours from my house so I had to get up early to make it to my stand by daylight. I got settled into a Gametamer about 20' up an oak tree and waited. I had been getting some pictures of some pretty good bucks in the area but had not seen any on any of my previous hunts this year. About 8:30, I heard a deer blow behind me and turned around to see two of the bucks I had pictures of. I think they crossed the trail I walked in on and caught my wind because they started acting very nervous and eventually turned around and disapeared back into the woods. I had about calmed down when a third buck appeared from my right. He was walking at a pretty good pace and was broadside about 20 yards out. When he entered a shooting lane, I came to full draw and then mouth grunted. He stopped to see if he could figure out what made the sound and I let the string go. At the shot, I was a little concerned because I did not get a pass through. However, I could tell the buck was hit hard. I gave him some time and then climbed down to go find him.
I wish I had taken some pictures of the blood trail. Despite the fact that I did not get an exit hole, it was the best blood trail I have ever seen. It turns out that the shot was a little forward and I caught the leg bone just in front of the crease. The Silver Flame broke the bone and I got enough penetration so that the deer was down quickly.
I am sure any realy sharp broadhead that is 2" wide would have produced the same result but I would say that the Silver Flame did its job.
I was hunting with my Rick Welch Dakota Pro 54# at 30" with Easton Full Metal Jacket arrows. The arrows weigh about 550 grains.
Here is a pic of the buck
