Photo shows the rib-split upon entry. Watch video for a complete examination of this hit.

Results - My killing shot impacted high lung inside of the triangle. The shot itself was slightly quartering-to. The shot centered a rib on impact which split it 4" in both directions. The muzzy-tipped arrow continued through both lungs and punctured the diaphram where it stopped. The broadhead cut several holes into the diaphram and liver due to the buffalo's running action with the arrow staying inside of the buffalo. The buffalo went 70 yards. He laid down in 10 seconds and was dead in 30 seconds. h
