    I will probably never know.

    Bella found it laying down right where it went out of sight. Quite a bit of dark red blood. It jumped up and ran and then stood, I didn't get a shot and it ran again. 20 yards and Bella found it again and I got 2 quick shots at it. One broadside and one going away. Then to complete the cock-up I had to cut its throat.

    It had a high shoulder shot that didn't go through it and one through its back leg (but I cant for the life of me remember which one). I gave the shoulders and the good hind leg away - Ive rung the guy to let me know what hind leg it was . There wasn't any blood on its coat anywhere. If I had hit it in the shoulder at 15 yards I would have expected the Barnes to go right through but it didn't, so its all a bit of a mystery.

    All in all shit shooting.

    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.
