You didn't mention arrow weight but with a well tuned rig shooting a mid weight (500+ grain) or heavier arrow and a good broadhead you would of blown through him on that hit. You'll always be behind the 8 ball shooting light arrows and mechanicals when it comes to penetration and you'll have to make good shots if you want to kill animals.
There will always be people who won't accept that a rig can be setup for penetration but there isn't a bone in a deers body that can't be easily broken with an arrow. The only question is are you aware of the compromise of shooting a rig like that and are you willing to live with them?
