Don't try for a head shot. The skulls are too thick:

Looks like the conclusion of a bad day!


We seldom get to choose
But I've seen them go both ways
And I would rather go out in a blaze of glory
Than to slowly rot away!

I thought on a brain shot you were supposed to aim between the ear and the eye??

Interesting to see that the skull was thick enough to stop the arrow. Lucky he didn't get shot in the side of his head. Would have been a different outcome...

I had seen this a few years ago. I never did hear a story about what happened. If he was shot intentionally, with a modern compund bow shooting anyhere around 230 fps+ he'd have been dead. The arrow would have completely penetrated the brain & stuck out the far side if it did not pas through all together.
