Question about Deer Hunting

[Draphoelix]

Googled for a while but haven't found any definitive answer so I'll give it a shot here.

I am writing something. A short story if you may. And I have come across a point where it involves deer hunting. This may not be the best forum but hopefully there are some people here who are into hunting/know people who does or unlike me have some kind of general idea of how it "works". I really don't have anybody else to ask about these kind of things.

Let's say I am hunting with a bow. And I have made a shot that paralyzes the deer, making it fall immediate onto the ground.
1.Does that sound like a shot onto the neck?
2.Would a spine shot have the same effect?
Also read some stories about deers making this "wailing" sound before they die.
3.Would that still be "possible" when its paralyzed?
4.And if the deer is paralyzed, and you want to put it out if its' misery, would cutting its' throat be the best approach?
5.When does this wailing sound usually occur? After the shot? During the "cut"?
The deer would probably trash around, moving its' head, kicking with its' legs during the cut.
6. Would that occur even if it's paralyzed?
7. If the deer is lied down onto the ground, and you cut its' throat. Would the blood like, spray out or just stream out of its' body?

I am sorry if these the questions sound strange

You should study the body functions of a deer. Go to your local vet or research a forum site for such specialists. They will be willing to help.

I'll give it a shot.

1. I wouldn't say immediately, but if it hit the jugular, then the deer would fall to the ground alot faster than usual due to severe blood loss, or if it hit the spinal cord.
2. If it broke the spine, then it would make the deer fall i would assume.
3. As long as it did not impede their speech box, or the required energy to do so, then yes.
4. Cutting its throat would rip the jugular, so it would most likely be the most effective way (without completely destroying the deer).
5. I haven't a clue. Most likely not during the cut.
6. It should a little, but not much as the blood required to do so is gushing out.
7. It would stream out.

I dont have definite answers, so assume these are wrong unless someone with skills in deer destruction says otherwise.

By the way, considering the size of a deer, i doubt an arrow would be able to hit the spine.

1.Does that sound like a shot onto the neck? The spine is where paralyzing comes from, the neck is where you die.
2.Would a spine shot have the same effect? Like the above answer
Also read some stories about deers making this "wailing" sound before they die.
3.Would that still be "possible" when its paralyzed?
4.And if the deer is paralyzed, and you want to put it out if its' misery, would cutting its' throat be the best approach? That or beheding, but since you are hunting, the throat it is.
5.When does this wailing sound usually occur? After the shot? During the "cut"? no idea dude.
The deer would probably trash around, moving its' head, kicking with its' legs during the cut.
6. Would that occur even if it's paralyzed? I think it shouldn't, since it is paralyzed
7. If the deer is lied down onto the ground, and you cut its' throat. Would the blood like, spray out or just stream out of its' body? Stream, irl, else it can be what better fits your story.
