The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Good job.
I hit a large doe at that spot in a rushed shot with my muzzleloader a couple of years ago.  Like you, I had never seen so much blood pumping out of a wound hole like that before.  They expire fast when you hit the large artery near the spine.

The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
